stretching true type fonts with GTK2.0

Hi,

I have to stretch a TTF to match a certain geometry.

If I use the x11 port I can use wxNativeFontInfo to specify with and 
height (via x and y resolution).

Using the GTK2.0 port, I tried to use
pango_font_description_set_stretch (PangoFontDescription *desc, 
PangoStretch stretch)

Just for testing I changed the wxFont::SetPointSize() so that 
pango_font_description_set_stretch() is called.

But I didn't see any effect.

Is there a way to stretch fonts in version 2.8.0 (for Linux)?

Thanks,
Burkhard
