I use JDK1.3 winNT. JDK1.3 claims that it can load fonts dynamically.
The problem I have is I am unable to use this feature because by default
Font.createFont() method returns a font with size=1. But when I tried to
change the size by deriveFont(int size) method I doesn't change the size too.
Only place where it works correctly is when I tried to get the font family
name by getFamily(). It works as expected.
Has anyone tried this? did it work? is it a known bg?
Any information regarding this will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Rajan

P.S: The code fragment I tried is as follows:
FileInputStream in=null;
Font myFont =null;
try{
in = new FileInputStream("Sri-tsc.ttf");
myFont = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT,in);
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
System.out.println(ex);
}
System.out.println(myFont.getSize()); // size 1
System.out.println(myFont.getFamily());
myFont = myFont.deriveFont(12);
System.out.println(myFont.getSize()); // even this is size one
