title: Where in the JDK is the source that renders fonts?
body: <p>Where is the spot in the JDK source where font rendering occurs? I've tried to look for a paint(Graphics g) in TextArea, JTextArea, TextComponent, JTextComponent, Font ... none of which override paint(Graphics g).  Is font information transformed into GlyphVectors which become Shapes that are painted in by ... ?  Where and how does font information get painted to the screen?</p>
