I use the following as a utility class:
import java.awt.Component;
import java.awt.Font;
import java.awt.FontMetrics;
public final class TextWidthChecker extends Component
{
private Font f = null;
public TextWidthChecker(String fnt, int size)
{
f = new Font(fnt, Font.PLAIN, size);
}
public int getTextWidth(String s)
{
int width = -1;
FontMetrics fm = getFontMetrics(f);
width = fm.stringWidth(s);
return width;
}
}
