Fontspacing under Linux is wrong / different to Windows
Hello everybody!
Our applet looks fine under Windows, but not under Linux.
The reason is the different spacing of the fonts in Linux.
Our tries to load the fonts via inputStream/Font. createFont and to derive the jre-font are without effect. Finally we copied the Windows-jre-font to the Java-jre-fonts. The spacing was wrong!
The spacing under Linux is a little big greater than Windows. We checked it with System.out.println(">>>"+g.getFontMetrics(myParent.getFontText()).stringWidth("Seise"));.
What's wrong - is there a bug in Linux (Suse 7.2/KDE2.0 and 6.1/KDE1.0) or the jre1.3 ?
Anybody can help us - please?
Looking forward to get help from a java-guru!
Regards
Stoegi ;-)
P.S.: The LookAndFeel() of our Applet is "javax.swing.plaf.metal.MetalLookAndFeel"
