Hi,
is there a default Font that is present in all operating systems?
If I use a Font on Windows and it is not present on Linux, then the
default Font of the OS is used... but the problem is that the size of the
Font goes to default too!
For example, I have assigned to a Button the Font "Tahoma" with size 8.
When I run the application under Linux the Font is set to "Serif" with
size 10.
Any ideas?
Ivan

I know of that are truly universal. You'll have to do some research of
your own on that one. I suggest picking one of those and setting up a
static final String[] with the platform specific names corresponding to
those universal fonts.<br>
