Drawing exotic fonts in a java applet
问题 I'd like to draw symbols contained in exotic fonts such as Wingdings, Webdings (they are called dingbats : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dingbat) in a java applet. When using Graphics.drawString() I end up with the typical 'square symbol' for each character in the drawn string. I could not find any answer by googling and I guess it's not something common. In the past I've done it with C# WPF, failed to do it with SVG and HTML. Is it possible in java? EDIT: Solved. There was a subtlety. Even
