Set Font in Slick

Seemingly its overly complicated to just set a font in slick. I cant just do Font font = new Font(); anymore. Is it just as easy, and Im missing something? Like some far off class in the sub folders of the slick api or something?

for angle code fonts use

Font font = new AngelCodeFont(“testdata/demo2.fnt”,“testdata/demo2_00.tga”);

or for TrueTypeFonts using awt use

Font font = new TrueTypeFont(new java.awt.Font(“Verdana”, Font.PLAIN, 16), false);

Do you know how I can use .fon Fonts?
