Most swing components support html, so it should be pretty easy!

HTML or XML would likely be the easiest and most portable.

You might want to design a class that provides the features you want
(like font style, weight, size, etc.) then serialize that with an
XmlEncoder. Trying to use a class for serialization that wasn't set
aside especially for that purpose can impose sever limitations on your code.

thank you for u reply , but it's for chat application , so i will
serialize ,then unserialize data again and send over network , i think
it will be heavy-weight ,

any anther suggestion !

Thanks
