I found out my problem. I was setting the color to what I thought was white by using 0xffffff. Wrong. The first octet of those four octets is a value from 0 to 0xff that indicates transparency of the color. Since I used 0xffffff, I was setting a white color with 0 transparency, which is, of course, invisible. Once I changed the color to 0xffffffff, the text showed up fine.
Thanks for your reply.
