Well, we'd thought about storing values - but that's basically the same
as the original idea of storing the width of each individual character,
and I think it would just become very unwieldy to manage. It's a
possibility though, and I thank you for the idea!

I would definitely agree that the issue appears to be the instantiation
time - my problem here is that this is basically the first time I've
dealt with objects and/or Java in relation to CF. So... how do I go
about reusing the FontMetrics object once I've created it? You'll have
to excuse my igno
I wrote a quick and dirty CFC of the fontmetrics stuff. I can do 100 calls including the dynamic generation of strings to send to fontmetrics at around 300-330 ms total for the 100 calls to the method. FYI, this also includes dynamic string generation (i.e. each call doesn't send in the same stri
We're starting to run into that as well...some of the numbers seem to be
quite off - just when we thought we had a solution. Anyone have any
other ideas on how we can accomplish this? This doesn't have to be
cross-platform - any way to call a native Windows function to get the
correct size?

Why don't you use _javascript_ to return the width? Or is it supposed to
run serverside?
function stringMetrics(str){
var tmp = document.createElement("SPAN");
tmp.appendChild(document.createTextNode(str));
tmp.style.display = 'none';
I'm not a java programmer, but I think you need to set the java.awt.font.FontRenderContext:

My tests shows that the returned value from java is closer to 150 dpi not screen resolution.
