Yes. 1. I ran MS office xp second cd, from which I tried to installed indic languages supports. It didn't provide that support, but did install lot many fonts. 2. Then, I copied Lucinda Unicode and Palladio San Unicode (sp?) fonts from my xp partition to my 98se partition. 3. For last one week, I had been installing/ uninstalling many fonts. I am also trying Keyboard layouts, etc. Thanks. -- ()'""'() (.

That solved it. There were some 174 fonts in my fonts folder. I copied all to another folder, leaving just Arial range in "fonts", and messed up entire display. Anyhow, I recopied those fonts, in sets of 10 each and then, ran java after each set of copy to see whether it worked. So, I copied almost all fonts back. Display again become correct. And Java is running beautifully now. I noticed that certain fonts had "hidden" attribute set. I have reset that attribute. Also, while copying back to fonts folder, it identified two font files which, it said that these were not valid font files, so I deleted them. Java is working now. The problem is solved.

Now the problem is solved, I think it can be retracted. However, if there is some info related to this, to analyse what had gone wrong, that is surely welcome -- ()'""'() (.

Now the problem is solved, I think it can be retracted. However, if there is some info related to this, to analyse what had gone wrong, that is surely welcome The code that died was not yours, but part of Sun's native class for handling fonts. It presumed all the fonts were following the rules and all the fonts were well formed. You might naively expect the OS to do a sanity check on newly installed fonts, or for fonts to be digitally signed by some checker that assures they are well formed. The catch is, one or more of your fonts were not. So the Sun code tripped over them. Another explanation is that one of more of the fonts used some obscure feature of the font format that the author of Sun's code was either not aware of or did not bother to test properly. I have run into a number of bugs where Sun's code works fine, but only in the USA locale. You might give Sun the font to see where the fault lies. Check the font out with other software.
