Writing a String on Applet

Changing Text Font

We need to invoke a method named: setFont(Font f) to change the Font size and style. To create a Font object we have used a constructor which takes following arguments. 1) String FontName, 2) Font Style as int. Here, We have used Font.BOLD whereby BOLD is the static int which belongs to java.awt.Font class. 3) Font size as int.

To change Text Color we have to invoke a method named: setColor(Color c) of Graphics class. Color object can be passed in 2 ways
1. By Creating Color object from the scratch like Color clr = new Color(255,0,0); Here, Constructor takes red, green, blue int values which can vary from 0 to 255.
2. By Passing static color object Like Color.RED or Color.red

		g.setFont(f);
		g.setColor(Color.GREEN);
		g.drawString("Ankit Virparia, www.ankit.co", 10, 100);
