The bold and italic fonts aren't rendered properly. Just compile the following
code and you can see what I mean:

import javax.swing.*;
import java.awt.*;
import java.awt.event.*;


//----------------------------------------------------------------

public class Fonts
{
public static void main(String[] args)
{
        JFrame frame = new MainFrame();
        frame.pack();
        frame.show();
}
}

//----------------------------------------------------------------

class MainFrame extends JFrame
{
    public MainFrame()
    {
        setTitle("Fonts: Bold and Italic do not seem to work");
        setLocation(300, 300);

        addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter()
        { public void windowClosing(WindowEvent e) { System.exit(0); }});

        getContentPane().add(new FontPanel());
    }
}

//----------------------------------------------------------------

class FontPanel extends JPanel implements ItemListener
{
    JComboBox combo;
    Font[] fonts;
    JTextField text;

    public FontPanel()
    {
        text = new JTextField("Font Sample");
        text.setEditable(false);
        text.setBackground(Color.white);
        text.setBorder(BorderFactory.createEtchedBorder());

        combo = new JComboBox();
        combo.addItemListener(this);
        /*
        This statement creates a 1 point version of ALL of the fonts - and
their variants - that
        are on the system. This means, for example, instead of getting
just "Courier New" you get
        "Courier New", "Courier New Bold", "Courier New Italic", and "Courier
New Bold Italic".
        On my system, the number of font names (retrieved
by 'getAvailableFontFamilyNames()')
        grew from 85 to 143 due to all of these variants now being listed.
        */
        fonts = GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getAllFonts();

        for (int i = 0; i < fonts.length; i++)
            combo.addItem(fonts[i].getFontName());

        setLayout(new FlowLayout(FlowLayout.LEFT, 10, 10));
        add(combo);
        add(text);
        add(Box.createHorizontalStrut(50));
    }

    public void itemStateChanged(ItemEvent anEvent)
    {
        if (anEvent.getStateChange() == ItemEvent.DESELECTED)
            return;

        /* This statement should create a new font with the same style and the
specified size.
         Bold and italic attributes do not seem to be working.
*/
        text.setFont(fonts[combo.getSelectedIndex()].deriveFont(19.0F));

        text.invalidate();
        validate();
    }
}
