Sun Microsystems Computer Accessories manual Default Font, System Fonts, Bitmap Fonts

Page 34

The font definition is according to the format for describing a system font (see “System Fonts” on page 20) or a bitmap font (see “Bitmap Fonts” on page 20).

Example

font.system.italic.small: Helvetica-italic-9

The default font (see “Default Font”) is used for any MIDP font combination that is not defined.

Default Font

A default font must be specified. This font is used in all cases where no other definition was given.

The default font is specified as follows:

font.default = <font_properties_filename> <system font definition>

Example

font.default = Arial-plain-12

System Fonts

A system font definition is in the standard Java format for specifying such a font. For details, see

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4/docs/api/java/awt/Font.html.

You can tell the Emulator to use the resident PC fonts to display text on the device screen.

Use the font specification in the form:

font.<name> = <system font definition>

Example

font.softButton = Arial-plain-12

Bitmap Fonts

To tell the Emulator to use a bitmap font, you need to specify a font property file that describes the font:

font.<font_name> = <font_property_filename>
