The FONT.PROPERTIES file controls the Java font-to-native-font mapping in JAVA\LIB\FONT.PROPERTIES. The FONT.PROPERTIES file is platform-specific and indicates the fonts that a particular platform uses for its Java virtual fonts. The FONT.PROPERTIES file for JDK1.3.1 on NetWare is nearly identical to the Solaris implementation. For a description, see the font properties page on the Sun Web site.
The FONT.PROPERTIES and Solaris implementation platforms are similar because they both use X11. NetWare's version of X11 supports only TrueType fonts, not Type 1 fonts. It is possible to install other fonts to replace the bitmap fonts. To change a font, use the alias filename JAVA/LIB/FONTS/FONT.DIR and then use this alias in the FONT.PROPERTIES file.
