This method returns an array of strings that contains the names of the available font families.
In addition, the getAllFonts( ) method is defined by the GraphicsEnvironment class. It
is shown here:
Font[ ] getAllFonts( )
This method returns an array of Font objects for all of the available fonts.
Since these methods are members of GraphicsEnvironment, you need a
GraphicsEnvironment reference to call them. You can obtain this reference by using the
getLocalGraphicsEnvironment( ) static method, which is defined by GraphicsEnvironment.
It is shown here:
static GraphicsEnvironment getLocalGraphicsEnvironment( )
Here is an applet that shows how to obtain the names of the available font families:
// Display Fonts
/*
<applet code="ShowFonts" width=550 height=60>
</applet>
*/
import java.applet.*;
import java.awt.*;
public class ShowFonts extends Applet {
public void paint(Graphics g) {
String msg = "";
String FontList[];
GraphicsEnvironment ge =
GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment();
FontList = ge.getAvailableFontFamilyNames();
for(int i = 0; i < FontList.length; i++)
msg += FontList[i] + " ";
g.drawString(msg, 4, 16);
}
}
Sample output from this program is shown next. However, when you run this program, you
may see a different list of fonts than the one shown in this illustration.
