Vincent Hardy's book Java 2D API Graphics comes with a GLF toolkit which supports many effects. There are examples of embossed text and other effects. I believe the toolkit is available for download. Use your favourite search engine.
You can also take a look at the java 2D demo. This does use outlines. Sounds like that isn't exactly what you want but take a look anyway Also note that you can set FOREGROUND and BACKGROUND text attributes which can be a Paint, not just a Color. -phil. Michele Puccini wrote:
Hello, I'm using TextLayouts made by AttributedStrings and I need to outline (Stroke) the characters. Sadly I didn't find any Outline TextAttribute, so I would like to know how to implement it. More generally it would be nice to implement virtually any kind of TextAttribute i.e. Emboss, Shadow, etc. Suggestions ?
