I'm trying to do this.... but not with any success so far!

The first error I get is
FontMetrics.java:59: No variable type defined in class java.awt.Font.
        fnt.type = Font.BYTE;
           ^

Should I go hack the code? Ahhhh!


Also... whats the difference between JDK 1.1.5 and Biss 0.94 ?

Numbers dont you luv em !

Cheers

Mark.
