  <p>Is it possible to stretch text in java horizontally. I know it should be there but I am unable to figure it out. Font Size affects both heigth and width of text. I tried with FontMetrics but it only gives me the width of the text. But i need to change only the text width so that it should look as if it is being stretched.</p>
  
  <p>If anyone is aware of doing this, please let me know.
  Thanks in Advance.</p>
