public class FontRenderContext extends Object
TheFontRenderContextclass is a container for the information needed to correctly measure text. The measurement of text can vary because of rules that map outlines to pixels, and rendering hints provided by an application.One such piece of information is a transform that scales typographical points to pixels. (A point is defined to be exactly 1/72 of an inch, which is slightly different than the traditional mechanical measurement of a point.) A character that is rendered at 12pt on a 600dpi device might have a different size than the same character rendered at 12pt on a 72dpi device because of such factors as rounding to pixel boundaries and hints that the font designer may have specified.
Anti-aliasing and Fractional-metrics specified by an application can also affect the size of a character because of rounding to pixel boundaries.
Typically, instances of
FontRenderContextare obtained from aGraphics2Dobject. AFontRenderContextwhich is directly constructed will most likely not represent any actual graphics device, and may lead to unexpected or incorrect results.

FontRenderContext
protected FontRenderContext()
Constructs a newFontRenderContextobject.

FontRenderContext
public FontRenderContext(AffineTransform tx, boolean isAntiAliased, boolean usesFractionalMetrics)
Constructs aFontRenderContextobject from an optionalAffineTransformand twobooleanvalues that determine if the newly constructed object has anti-aliasing or fractional metrics. In each case the boolean valuestrueandfalsecorrespond to the rendering hint valuesONandOFFrespectively.To specify other hint values, use the constructor which specifies the rendering hint values as parameters :
FontRenderContext(AffineTransform, Object, Object).- Parameters:
tx- the transform which is used to scale typographical points to pixels in thisFontRenderContext. If null, an identity transform is used.isAntiAliased- determines if the newly constructed object has anti-aliasing.usesFractionalMetrics- determines if the newly constructed object has fractional metrics.

FontRenderContext
public FontRenderContext(AffineTransform tx, Object aaHint, Object fmHint)
Constructs aFontRenderContextobject from an optionalAffineTransformand twoObjectvalues that determine if the newly constructed object has anti-aliasing or fractional metrics.- Parameters:
tx- the transform which is used to scale typographical points to pixels in thisFontRenderContext. If null, an identity transform is used.aaHint- - one of the text antialiasing rendering hint values defined injava.awt.RenderingHints.

Any other value will throwIllegalArgumentException- Throws:
IllegalArgumentException- if the hints are not one of the legal values.- Since:
