Compare derived fonts in Java
Description
The following code shows how to compare derived fonts.
Example
import java.awt.Font;
import java.awt.Graphics;
import java.awt.Graphics2D;
import java.awt.RenderingHints;
import java.awt.font.TextAttribute;
import java.awt.geom.AffineTransform;
import java.util.Hashtable;
/*from ww w . j av a 2 s .c om*/
import javax.swing.JComponent;
import javax.swing.JFrame;
class MyCanvas extends JComponent {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;
g2.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,
RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
// Create a 1-point font.
Font font = new Font("Serif", Font.PLAIN, 1);
float x = 20, y = 20;
Font font24 = font.deriveFont(40.0f);
g2.setFont(font24);
g2.drawString("font.deriveFont(24.0f)", x, y += 30);
Font font24italic = font24.deriveFont(Font.ITALIC);
g2.setFont(font24italic);
g2.drawString("font24.deriveFont(Font.ITALIC)", x, y += 30);
AffineTransform at = new AffineTransform();
at.shear(.2, 0);
Font font24shear = font24.deriveFont(at);
g2.setFont(font24shear);
g2.drawString("font24.deriveFont(at)", x, y += 30);
Hashtable attributes = new Hashtable();
attributes.put(TextAttribute.WEIGHT, TextAttribute.WEIGHT_BOLD);
Font font24bold = font24.deriveFont(attributes);
g2.setFont(font24bold);
g2.drawString("font24.deriveFont(attributes)", x, y += 30);
}
}
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] a) {
JFrame window = new JFrame();
window.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
window.setBounds(30, 30, 450, 450);
window.getContentPane().add(new MyCanvas());
window.setVisible(true);
}
}
The code above generates the following result.
