Displaying Mapinfo text layer with rotation

How to display Mapinfo "text" layer correctly? It seems that using
STYLEITEM "AUTO" and TYPE ANNOTATION ensures the features to display, but
the angle or the font display setting have not taken into account.

The rotation angle and the displayable text do not appear as a separate
attribute, so it is not possible to set the appearance manually (eg. by
using LABELANGLEITEM).

How to render the labels with the size depending on the scale as Mapinfo
does?


I would greatly thankful for any help.
