Instances of this class describe operating system fonts. <p> For platform-independent behaviour, use the get and set methods corresponding to the following properties: <dl> <dt>height</dt><dd>the height of the font in points</dd> <dt>name</dt><dd>the face name of the font, which may include the foundry</dd> <dt>style</dt><dd>A bitwise combination of NORMAL, ITALIC and BOLD</dd> </dl> If extra, platform-dependent functionality is required: <ul> <li>On <em>Windows</em>, the data member of the <code>FontData</code> corresponds to a Windows <code>LOGFONT</code> structure whose fields may be retrieved and modified.</li> <li>On <em>X</em>, the fields of the <code>FontData</code> correspond to the entries in the font's XLFD name and may be retrieved and modified. </ul> Application code does <em>not</em> need to explicitly release the resources managed by each instance when those instances are no longer required, and thus no <code>dispose()</code> method is provided.
