To create a bold and italic font in Java, you can use the deriveFont()
method of the Font
class to create a new font based on an existing font, and then use the BOLD
and ITALIC
constants of the Font
class to specify the desired font style.
Here's an example of how to do it:
import java.awt.Font; public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { // Create a bold and italic font based on the default font Font font = new Font(Font.SANS_SERIF, Font.BOLD | Font.ITALIC, 12); // Use the font to render text // (implementation details depend on the specific graphics library being used) } }
This code creates a new font based on the default sans-serif font, with a size of 12 points and both the BOLD
and ITALIC
styles applied. The |
operator is used to combine the two styles.
You can use a similar approach to create other font styles, such as underlined or strikethrough, by using the appropriate constants of the Font
class.
