Importing Font to GUI

Question

I am trying to change the font for my GUI besides the basic 5 that swing seems to come with. How to import fonts and actually use them in my code?

Answer 1

You can try with this:

Font font = Font.createFont(Font.TRUETYPE_FONT, fontStream);

Next,

GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().registerFont(font);

And,

new Font("nameOfFont", Font.BOLD, 13)
