ADDITIONAL SYSTEM INFORMATION :
Occurs on Windows and Linux. MacOS seems to be OK.

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
With the Java update 11.0.5 the font metrics returns a string width of zero for large font size objects. A correct width is only reported for space characters. We use the large font in large graphics transformations. Reporting the font metric for fonts with a fontsize up to 1950 seems to be OK. Fontsizes above 2000 return the unexpected result of a zero width.

REGRESSION : Last worked in version 11

ACTUAL -

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
    public static void main( String[] args ) {
        Font font = new Font( "SansSerif", 0, 12000 );
        System.out.println( font.getStringBounds( "str", new FontRenderContext( null, false, true ) ).getWidth() );
        System.out.println( font.getStringBounds( " ", new FontRenderContext( null, false, true ) ).getWidth() );
    }

---------- END SOURCE ----------

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Use Java 11.04 instead 11.05.

FREQUENCY : always
