Which Windows fonts are supported by Java?

Richard HarrisonDec 11 2020

In the "Working With Oracle Forms" document (previously Forms Services Deployment Guide) it states the following in the "Managing Application Fonts" section : -
Using Fusion Middleware Control, you can also change the default font and font settings by the Registry.dat file. All font names are Java Font names. Each of these parameters represents the default property to use when none is specified.
Some fonts on Windows are not supported in Java. For this reason you can specify (map) Java-supported fonts that appear when a non-supported font is encountered.
I specify Segoe UI as my font in the properties in Forms Builder and that seems to work fine at runtime even though I haven't changed Registry.dat.
Is there a published list of which fonts are supported by Java anywhere?
Thanks in advance
Regards
