public final class Fonts
extends java.lang.Object
```
Provides static access to popular Windows fonts. The sizes of the font constants are specified in typographic points, approximately 1/72 of an inch.
TODO: Consider changing the visibility of the package private methods to public. As an alternative we may provide a FontPolicy that can emulate the font choice on Windows XP/2000 and Windows Vista for different software resolutions (96dpi/120dpi) and desktop font size settings (Normal/Large/Extra Large).

  - WINDOWS_ICON_FONT_KEY
```
static final java.lang.String WINDOWS_ICON_FONT_KEY
```
    The desktop property key used to lookup Windows' icon font. This font scales with the software resolution and the desktop font size setting (Normal/Large/Extra Large). However, in some non-western Windows environments this font cannot display the locale's glyphs. Therefore a fallback is needed for these locales. Such a fallback can be achieved with composite fonts. See the Windows default font policy for more an implementation that aims to obtain composite fonts.

  - getLooks1xWindowsControlFont
```
static java.awt.Font getLooks1xWindowsControlFont()
```
    Returns the Windows control font used by the JGoodies Looks version 1.x. It is intended for visual backward compatibility only. The font returned is the default GUI font that scales with the resolution (96dpi, 120dpi, etc) but not with the desktop font size settings (normal, large, extra large).
    On Windows Vista, the font may be completely wrong.
    
    Returns:
    
    the Windows default GUI font that scales with the resolution, but not the desktop font size setting
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - on non-Windows platforms
  - getWindowsControlFont
```
public static java.awt.Font getWindowsControlFont()
```
    Looks up and returns the Windows control font. Returns the Windows icon title font unless it is inappropriate for the Windows version.
    The icon title font scales with the resolution (96dpi, 101dpi, 120dpi, etc) and the desktop font size settings (normal, large, extra large). Older versions may return a poor font.
    
    Returns:
    
    the Windows control font
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - on non-Windows platforms
  - getDefaultGUIFont
```
private static java.awt.Font getDefaultGUIFont()
```
    Looks up and returns the Windows defaultGUI font. Works around a bug with Java 1.4.2_17, 1.5.0_15, and 1.6.0 on Vista, where the win.defaultGUI.font desktop property returns null. In this case a logical "Dialog" font is used as fallback.
    
    Returns:
    
    the Windows defaultGUI font, or a dialog font as fallback.
  - getIconFont
```
private static java.awt.Font getIconFont()
```
  - getFallbackFont
```
private static java.awt.Font getFallbackFont()
```
  - getDesktopFont
```
private static java.awt.Font getDesktopFont(java.lang.String fontName)
```
    Looks up and returns a font using the default toolkit's desktop properties.
    
    Parameters:
    
    fontName - the name of the font to return
    
    Returns:
    
    the font
