Hello!

In an application that I am working on, I want to use a specific font that 
my company uses (not a True Type font unfortunately). It seems that I can 
only create true type fonts through java. So my alternative (as I see it) is 
to make sure to install the font that I want to use along with my 
application. If the PC that the application is installed does not have this 
specific font, then java automatically uses the default font "Dialog". How 
can I create an exception when this happens, in order to set myself the font 
that I want to use (one of the default ones), instead of the program doing 
it automatically?
I tried the following:

    try
    {
      this.setFont(new java.awt.Font("MyOwnFont", 1, 18));
    }
    catch (Exception ex)
    {
      this.setFont(new java.awt.Font("TheSansSemiBold-Plain", 1, 20));
    }

but this does not work, since java does not throw an exception when it does 
not find "MyOwnFont", but it automatically uses the "Dialog" font instead.

Any ideas?

Thanks a lot
