Mitchell-
The reason for our naming policy is to keep a professional air around the JavaRanch. You can find further discussion about the naming policy here. If you have any problems with it, you can discuss it there. If you don't feel comfortable using your real name, feel free to use a fake name -- just don't make it 'obviously fictitious' like "Bill Clinton" or "Ben Dover"

Hi Mitchell,
Here is the code that shows how you can use your font to display. This is an applet.

Mitchell,
I like your display name.
Here's a basic outline for an application that does what you're trying to do. Note that nothing really different than what Pradyumna demonstrated is used:

Catching on?
Good Luck.

here is a link to the java documentation. As a beginner you will soon realize that it is your best friend. How to find all the methods associated with the String class:
on the top left frame of the web page ( link provided above ), find the Package name that the String class belongs to --> java.lang. On the bottom left, the link to the String class should now be in the list of classes. Click on it and look under the method summary. The method you are looking for is there.

Big hint: it's the length method.

Mitchell,
Take a look at the links to the API documentation as Jamie has suggested and you will discover that String::length() can be used to determine the number of characters in a String.
For example, given some String called whatever, to determine how many characters are in whatever, your program might include this:Making sense?
