[JAVA2D] Kerning

2006-08-15 Thread Peter B. West
What's the situation with kerning? Can I assume that kerning is not supported on Type1 fonts? If so, are there any plans to enable the reading of afm files associated with Type1 fonts to obtains kerning data? Even with truetype fonts, I don't seem to get any result from setting the KERNING

If its not working for TextLayout then there's not much point looking at GlyphVector. I suggest to try using Times New Roman or perhaps Arial directly with TextLayout This definitely works fine and if there's still no kerning you probably have a bug in your code. -phil. Peter B. West wrote On
