I saw this early but forgot to link to it. Today I go back and there are a ton of comments related to the post.
A tricky issue with java.awt.Font If your code or code you use relies on loading fonts by name, you may face severe limitations when trying to use your application in a different environment than the one you performed your tests. Although many of us are aware of the fact specific fonts may not be installed on a machine, trying to work around this problem may prove to be more difficult as it seems at first.
