Hey Archie,
I tried your suggestion but that didn't seem to help either.  It just displays "\u00AB...".

thanks,
Jody

The ampersand "escape" is an XML thing, not a Java thing.
In Java you can use \u for non-ASCII characters.

So try something like this..

 drawString("\u00ABLabel\u00BB");

Not sure if << and >> are Unicode characters though. You may need
to use different corresponding Unicode values.
