This book is intended for Java developers who want to produce stunning graphics. The latest version of the Java platform, version 2, includes a set of classes that make it easy to produce professional-looking graphics. These classes are known as Java 2D or the 2D Application Programming Interface (2D API).
I don't assume that you know anything about computer graphics, which is an extensive field. I'll explain the concepts of Java 2D's features as well as the classes and methods you need to take advantage of them.
To get the most out of this book, however, you should be comfortable programming in Java. You should also have at least a rudimentary knowledge of the Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT).
