Dialog typeface outside Java

[Dreen]

Hello Java Community,

I am quite new to the Java language, however Im familiar with programming overall. I am in need to write an application that would use Java's Dialog typeface in image creation, but I do not know Java well enough to write it in this language.
I am looking for the Dialog typeface in TrueType, FreeType or some other format that I would be able to use outside the Java language. I have searched for this a lot but with no results.
I would greatly appreciate any help in finding this typeface.

I have decided searching is pointless, there is no Dialog outside Java.
Being however in need as I am, I have decided to try and write a Java program, which would do what I want which is:
* take 2 arguments in cmd line - label text and label name (label, labelName)
* create an image with black background and white text in Dialog size 11 saying exactly what was given in label text parameter
* save an image as labelName.png

So far this is what I was able to produce:

Code:

public class Main {
    
    /**
     * Installation folder
     */
    static String pmDir = "/home/dreen/Makra/patmaker/";
    
    /**
     * PATs folder
     */
    static String patDir = "/home/dreen/Makra/";//matchItems/";
    
    /**
     * Font size
     */
    static int fSize = 11;
    
    
    
    
    
    
    /**
     * @param args the command line arguments
     */
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        
        // there have to be 2 arguments: label text, label name.
        if (args.length < 2)
        {
            System.out.println("Too few arguments (2 required).");
            System.exit(-1);
        }
        
        String label = args[0];
        String labelName = args[1];
        int imgH = fSize;
        int imgW = label.length() * 10; // how to get text size before initializing the image btw?
        
        // setup the image
        BufferedImage image = new BufferedImage(imgW, imgH, BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
        Graphics2D g2d = image.createGraphics();
        
        g2d.setColor(Color.BLACK);
        g2d.drawRect(0,0,imgH,imgW);
        
        g2d.setColor(Color.WHITE);
        Font f = new Font("Dialog", Font.PLAIN, fSize);
        g2d.setFont(f);
        g2d.drawString(label, 0, 0);
        
        g2d.dispose();
        
        // save the image
        File file = new File(patDir + labelName + ".png");
        try
        {
            ImageIO.write(image,"png",file);
        }
        catch(IOException e)
        {
            handleException(e);
        }
    }
    
    
    /**
     * Handle errors
     */
    public static void handleException (Exception e)
    {
        try
        {
            BufferedWriter errorLog = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(pmDir + "error.log"));
            errorLog.write("Afollowing error occured:\n\n");
            errorLog.write ("====== Exception " + e.getMessage() + " ======");
            errorLog.write(e.getStackTrace().toString());
            System.err.println("An error occured, log file saved.");
            System.exit(-1);
        } catch(IOException ioe) 
        {
            System.err.println("IOException");
            System.exit(-1);
        }
        
    }
}

This is a complete program for that purpose, which should work, but it doesn't. Can you please help me and tell me why?
