I am not sure what you might mean by "no longer" and
I don't know what new problems Linux might introduce but I
have 2 comments on your code snippet.
1) You appear to have plucked the font "Arial" out of thin air.
When using anything apart from the logical fonts you need to ensure
its one of the fonts listed via "getAvailableFontFamilyNames()"
2) You are drawing the string at (0,0). Since the y position is used as
the baseline you are drawing off the top off the printable area and
none of the characters you are printing have any descenders.
