How do I package a custom font in my app?

Java 2D
#1

I know I can use Font.createFont() to create a font but what format is the expected file type? Essentially I want to create a custom font for my game and be able to use it calls to Graphics.drawString().

#2

Is it really so hard to read the docs?

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/java/awt/Font.html#createFont(int,%20java.io.File)

#3

Actually I did. But thanks for your reply. From reading it again it seems I have to provide a TrueType or Post Script 1 file (whatever they look like)
