GlyphVector Font

Hi. Could someone help me out w/ this.
I am trying an extremely small test for drawing
GlyphVector of a char/string, but i getting just a line.
There was another thread from this forum on glyph
and tessellator and buffered image, but that’s a bit advanced,
and i just wanted drawing from points.
i just wanted a dumb down example here:

/**

}

nevermind, i got a rough working version.
