Java Question (Drawing Strings)

Why does Java draw the String at some weird offset every time I try to draw a string through Graphics.drawString? How can I get around it?

Define 'some weird offset'? Are you taking into effect the font's spacing and such?

Sorry, not to sound stupid or anything, but how would the fonts spacing effect where the text is placed?

Well, it might not, but you haven't said how big the offset is. A few pixels out could definitely do with font spacing, size, etc. 50000 pixels generally isn't anything to do with the font, but more of a programming error :P
