I am displaying some graphics text on Screen by using the drawString(. . .) function of Java2D Library.

Refering to the figure in this article i want my string to be drawn from Ascender Line rather than BaseLine. In simple words is there any way to calculate the height b/w ascender line and Base Line?

    You can get the FontMetrics object of the used font, and determine the ascent using getAscent() or getMaxAscent(), whichever is appropriate in your case.
