Hi, That's one way to do it, but if you want to see which fonts are available to your JVM then you can use the following command:
import java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment; ... // For font family names GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getAvailableFontFamilyNames() // For font details, from here you can get more information about the fonts GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getAllFonts() Hope that helps Mehdi On 5 September 2011 22:04, J.Pietschmann <j3322...@yahoo.de> wrote: > Am 05.09.2011 13:09, schrieb Theresa Jayne Forster: >> How do you determine the font-family name for a font loaded by autodetect? > ... >> File names are not always the same > > Most Font file viewers (or file managers) can display the real > font name.
