See the 2 attached files.

Learn about the techniques here:

Regarding the draw_bezier_sandwich ps-routine, I
don't think the order of "thickness controls" is
clearly listed anywhere (I'll post a note to the
developers list). But if you're postscript-savvy,
here's how it works... Points 0-3 and points 4-7
are control points for 2 separate bezier curves,
listed in the following order:

x5 y5 x6 y6 x7 y7
x4 y4
x1 y1 x2 y2 x3 y3
x0 y0
linewidth draw_bezier_sandwich

Distances are measured in staff-space units. If
the order of coordinates is confusing, it may be
helpful to read the list from the bottom up.

hope this helps.
