Clearly this has something to do with Sun's native code for handling fonts inside the JVM. At any rate, this is no problem inside any Java code. Sun's Bugparade lists several similar problems: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/search.do?process=1&category=&subcategory=&bugStatus=&type=&keyword=fontObject.cpp&maxResults=10&startIndex=1&sortBy=relevance Check if you can upgrade your JVM. Maybe the problem has been fixed in a later version. It could also be that you've got a problematic font in your system that causes the crash. > Will using the PJA (Pure Java AWT) package help? You can try, but I'm not sure if it'll help.
