original synopsis (user's): "Graphics.drawString fails if Graphics.setFont(=
) was used before (when Printing)"

(since setFont() apparently not significant, have removed that from synopsi=
s)

Running this application does:
- print "HelloWorld!" with JRE 1.1.7b
- print an empty page with JRE 1.2final

If you do not use "setFont" then the string will be displayed
in the default font.

Displaying the string in a Frame by overriding "paint" works
correctly, too.

---- cut here ----
import java.awt.*;
import java.util.*;

public class PrintBug {
  public static void main( String argv[] ) {
    Frame f =3D new Frame( "Hello World" );
    f.show();
    PrintJob pj =3D Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getPrintJob( f, "Hello", nu=
ll );
    Graphics pg =3D pj.getGraphics();

    // this line causes the trouble
    pg.setFont( new Font( "Serif", Font.BOLD, 18 ) );

    pg.drawString( "HelloWorld!", 50, 50 );
    pg.dispose();
    pj.end();
  }
}
