Hello David, "get font and request java.awt.FontMetrics.getStringBounds for some string" is too loose description and it is impossible to reproduce your problem without details - font name/filename, string, etc.
Could you try to prepare minimal testcase that can be used to reproduce the problem? Ideally it would be something without any swing code - you may get your font from file, instantiate buffered image and get graphics from it, get font metrics and request string bounds for your string. If problem is not reproducible with such scenario then try to identify what in your code makes the difference. As soon as reason will be identified we can try to find workaround/fix. regards, -igor On Tue, 18 Nov 2003, Rosenstrauch, David wrote: > Got the following stack trace: > > java.lang.InternalError: Could not invert devTX > at sun.awt.font.NativeFontWrapper.layoutGlyphVector(Native Method) > at > sun.awt.font.StandardGlyphVector.performDefaultLayout(StandardGlyphVe > ctor.java:338) > at > sun.awt.font.StandardGlyphVector.initPositions(StandardGlyphVector.ja > va:690) > at > sun.awt.font.StandardGlyphVector.getLogicalBounds(StandardGlyphVector > .java:475) > at java.awt.Font.getStringBounds(Font.java:1794) > at java.awt.Font.getStringBounds(Font.java:1707) > at java.awt.FontMetrics.getStringBounds(FontMetrics.java:464) > ... my code here ... > > > I found no(!) references about this in Google or Google groups.
