formatting in java

i don't want to display it some where.

what i want is to send this formated document to a printer.

see what i've done in continuation to the above code.

my inner class.

private class IntroPage implements Printable {

/**

* Method: print

*

* @param g a value of type Graphics

* @param pageFormat a value of type PageFormat

* @param page a value of type int

* @return a value of type int

*/

public int print (Graphics g, PageFormat pageFormat, int page) {

// Create the Graphics2D object

Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) g;

// Translate the origin to 0,0 for the top left corner

g2d.translate (pageFormat.getImageableX (), pageFormat.getImageableY ());

// Set the default drawing color to black

g2d.setPaint (Color.black);

// Draw a border around the page

Rectangle2D.Double border = new Rectangle2D.Double (0,

0,

pageFormat.getImageableWidth (),

pageFormat.getImageableHeight ());

g2d.draw (border);

// Print the title

String titleText = "Printing in Java Part 2";

Font titleFont = new Font ("helvetica", Font.BOLD, 36);

g2d.setFont (titleFont);

// Compute the horizontal center of the page

FontMetrics fontMetrics = g2d.getFontMetrics ();

double titleX = (pageFormat.getImageableWidth () / 2) - (fontMetrics.stringWidth (titleText) / 2);

double titleY = 3 * POINTS_PER_INCH;

g2d.drawString (titleText, (int) titleX, (int) titleY);

return (PAGE_EXISTS);

}

}

This class is called like this

Book book = new Book();

book.append(new IntroPage(), printerJob.defaultPage());

printerJob.setPageable(book);

printerJob.print();

My input will be like this for example

<Company Name>Date:19/8/2006

Name: <Name>

Age :24

Job Title: Software Engineer

This will be sent as a plain string.

i need to format it like for example

<Company Name>Date:19/8/2006 ->this should be bold.

The Fields like Name, Age and JobTitle should be bold and italics.

So how can i dothat and..

this formatted will go to a printer and get printed.
