Returns:

the style of this Font

Since:

JDK1.0

See Also:

isPlain(), isBold(), isItalic()

getSize

public int getSize()

Enabled: Returns the point size of this Font, rounded to an integer. Most users are familiar with the idea of using point size to specify the size of glyphs in a font. This point size defines a measurement between the baseline of one line to the baseline of the following line in a single spaced text document. The point size is based on typographic points, approximately 1/72 of an inch.

The Java(tm)2D API adopts the convention that one point is equivalent to one unit in user coordinates. When using a normalized transform for converting user space coordinates to device space coordinates 72 user space units equal 1 inch in device space. In this case one point is 1/72 of an inch.

Returns:

the point size of this Font in 1/72 of an inch units.

Since:

JDK1.0

See Also:

getSize2D(), GraphicsConfiguration.getDefaultTransform(), GraphicsConfiguration.getNormalizingTransform()

getFont

public static Font getFont(String nm)

Enabled: Returns a Font object from the system properties list.

Parameters:

nm - the property name

Returns:

a Font object that the property name describes.

Since:

1.2

decode

public static Font decode(String str)

Enabled: Returns the Font that the str argument describes. To ensure that this method returns the desired Font, format the str parameter in one of two ways:

"fontfamilyname-style-pointsize" or
"fontfamilyname style pointsize"

in which style is one of the three case-insensitive strings: "BOLD", "BOLDITALIC", or "ITALIC", and pointsize is a decimal representation of the point size. For example, if you want a font that is Arial, bold, and a point size of 18, you would call this method with: "Arial-BOLD-18".

The default size is 12 and the default style is PLAIN. If you don't specify a valid size, the returned Font has a size of 12. If you don't specify a valid style, the returned Font has a style of PLAIN. If you do not provide a valid font family name in the str argument, this method still returns a valid font with a family name of "dialog". To determine what font family names are available on your system, use the GraphicsEnvironment.getAvailableFontFamilyNames() method. If str is null, a new Font is returned with the family name "dialog", a size of 12 and a PLAIN style. If str is null, a new Font is returned with the name "dialog", a size of 12 and a PLAIN style.

Parameters:

str - the name of the font, or null

Returns:

the Font object that str describes, or a new default Font if str is null.

Since:

JDK1.1

getFamily()

getFont

public static Font getFont(String nm,
                           Font font)

Enabled: Gets the specified Font from the system properties list. As in the getProperty method of System, the first argument is treated as the name of a system property to be obtained. The String value of this property is then interpreted as a Font object.

The property value should be one of the following forms:

• fontname-style-pointsize
• fontname-pointsize
• fontname-style
• fontname

where style is one of the three case-insensitive strings "BOLD", "BOLDITALIC", or "ITALIC", and point size is a decimal representation of the point size.

The default style is PLAIN. The default point size is 12.

If the specified property is not found, the font argument is returned instead.

Parameters:

nm - the case-insensitive property name

font - a default Font to return if property nm is not defined

Returns:

the Font value of the property.

Suppressed: Returns a new GlyphVector object, performing full layout of the text if possible. Full layout is required for complex text, such as Arabic or Hindi. Support for different scripts depends on the font and implementation.

Bidi, and should only be performed on text that has a uniform direction. The direction is indicated in the flags parameter,by using LAYOUT_RIGHT_TO_LEFT to indicate a right-to-left (Arabic and Hebrew) run direction, or LAYOUT_LEFT_TO_RIGHT to indicate a left-to-right (English) run direction.

In addition, some operations, such as Arabic shaping, require context, so that the characters at the start and limit can have the proper shapes. Sometimes the data in the buffer outside the provided range does not have valid data. The values LAYOUT_NO_START_CONTEXT and LAYOUT_NO_LIMIT_CONTEXT can be added to the flags parameter to indicate that the text before start, or after limit, respectively, should not be examined for context.

All other values for the flags parameter are reserved.

Parameters:

frc - the specified FontRenderContext

text - the text to layout

start - the start of the text to use for the GlyphVector

limit - the limit of the text to use for the GlyphVector

flags - control flags as described above

Returns:

a new GlyphVector representing the text between start and limit, with glyphs chosen and positioned so as to best represent the text

Throws:

ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException - if start or limit is out of bounds
