Font("serif",Font.ITALIC,32) is not appearing italic on winNT. To reproduce compile & run this source code :

import java.awt.*;

public class drawStr extends Canvas {

    public drawStr() {
        setBackground(Color.white);
    }

    public void paint(Graphics g) {
        g.setFont(new Font("serif", Font.ITALIC, 32));
        g.drawString(g.getFont().getName(), 100, 100);
    }

    public static void main(String s[]) {
        Frame f = new Frame("Java 2D Demo - drawStr");
        f.add("Center", new drawStr());
        f.pack();
        f.setSize(new Dimension(400,300));
        f.show();
    }
}


Also a problem on win95.
