181 <p>Specifying the font used for displaying text depends on the
182 transformation of UNO API font information into the Java&trade; format.
183 However, if the UAA is used directly, this is of course not an
184 issue.</p>
186 <p>The support of this interface is optional to reduce overhead in case
187 that no text is displayed and color information can not be determined
188 with an acceptable cost.</p>
