How do you use setFont(java.awt.Font f) (from Greenfoot)?

Usually like this: - get the current font from the image - call the deriveFont method on it and apply a new style and/or a new size - set the font to the image again For example (copied from my Bomberman game where I changed the size of the Text): 
        GreenfootImage image = new GreenfootImage(WIDTH, HEIGHT);
        Font font = image.getFont();
        font = font.deriveFont(FONT_SIZE);
        image.setFont(font);
        image.setColor(new Color(red,green,blue) );

Can you show me where in "The Java™ Tutorials" or in the Java API this is (font.deriveFont()), so I can understand it better and use it the way I might want to (I don't have anything specific I want to do, I'm just wondering)?

I just noticed this new Greenfoot Version: 3.1.0 which has Color and Font in it with this method but I didn't download it (at the time) and I still wanted to see the Java one.

Oh, that's great. I didn't see the new version yet.
