| FontRenderContext The  FontRenderContextclass is a container for the
   information needed to correctly measure text. | 
| GlyphVector A  GlyphVectorobject is a collection of glyphs
 containing geometric information for the placement of each glyph
 in a transformed coordinate space which corresponds to the
 device on which theGlyphVectoris ultimately
 displayed. | 
| LineMetrics The  LineMetricsclass allows access to the
 metrics needed to layout characters along a line
 and to layout of a set of lines. | 
| TextAttribute The  TextAttributeclass defines attribute keys and
 attribute values used for text rendering. | 
| Class and Description |
