- Method Detail
  - setFontName
```
void setFontName(java.lang.String name)
```
    set the name for the font (i.e. Arial)
    
    Parameters:
    
    name - String representing the name of the font to use
  - getFontName
```
java.lang.String getFontName()
```
    get the name for the font (i.e. Arial)
    
    Returns:
    
    String representing the name of the font to use
  - setFontHeight
```
void setFontHeight(short height)
```
    set the font height in unit's of 1/20th of a point. Maybe you might want to use the setFontHeightInPoints which matches to the familiar 10, 12, 14 etc..
    
    Parameters:
    
    height - height in 1/20ths of a point
    
    See Also:
    
    setFontHeightInPoints(short)
  - setFontHeightInPoints

void setFontHeightInPoints(short height)
```
    set the font height
    
    Parameters:
    
    height - height in the familiar unit of measure - points
    
    See Also:
    
    setFontHeight(short)
  - getFontHeight
```
short getFontHeight()
```
    Get the font height in unit's of 1/20th of a point.
    For many users, the related getFontHeightInPoints() will be more helpful, as that returns font heights in the more familiar points units, eg 10, 12, 14.
    
    Returns:
    
    short - height in 1/20ths of a point
    
    See Also:
    
    getFontHeightInPoints()
  - getFontHeightInPoints
```
short getFontHeightInPoints()
```
    Get the font height in points.
    This will return the same font height that is shown in Excel, such as 10 or 14 or 28.
    
    Returns:
    
    short - height in the familiar unit of measure - points
