/**
*   The <code>FontRenderContext</code> class is a container for the
*   information needed to correctly measure text.  The measurement of text
*   can vary because of rules that map outlines to pixels, and rendering
*   hints provided by an application.
*   <p>
*   One such piece of information is a transform that scales
*   typographical points to pixels. (A point is defined to be exactly 1/72
*   of an inch, which is slightly different than
*   the traditional mechanical measurement of a point.)  A character that 
*   is rendered at 12pt on a 600dpi device might have a different size
*   than the same character rendered at 12pt on a 72dpi device because of
*   such factors as rounding to pixel boundaries and hints that the font
*   designer may have specified.
*   <p>
*   Anti-aliasing and Fractional-metrics specified by an application can also
*   affect the size of a character because of rounding to pixel
*   boundaries.
*   <p>
*   Typically, instances of <code>FontRenderContext</code> are
*   obtained from a {@link java.awt.Graphics2D Graphics2D} object.  A
*   <code>FontRenderContext</code> which is directly constructed will
*   most likely not represent any actual graphics device, and may lead
*   to unexpected or incorrect results.
*   <p>
*   @see java.awt.RenderingHints#KEY_TEXT_ANTIALIASING
*   @see java.awt.RenderingHints#KEY_FRACTIONALMETRICS
*   @see java.awt.Graphics2D#getFontRenderContext()
