Michael:

The fonts you have in Java are "Dialog", "Serif", "SansSerif" and
"monospaced".  That's as specific as you can get on the Java side. 
There are fontsets in Java for different locales (check the
multi-lingual-applications newsgroup) that handle int'l sets and how
they display.  I believe this work better when you have Unicode font
sets installed under Wintel.

If you see something that looks like an opinion up there,
it's mine and mine alone.

Mail sent to me from the newsgroups won't bounce but will
be ignored.  If I have time, I'll respond, but you  have
a better chance if you confine your posts to the newsgroups
