No

Fonts aren't rendered on Java 11 (OpenJdk 11) on Linux (Debian 10 with LxQt desktop). I had the same trouble with other Java applications since I installed Debian 10 with LxQt desktop environment: Netbeans, OWASP ZAP.

java -Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=lcd -jar JDecisiontable-x.y.z.jar

fixes this. We need to put this into the documentation (README + document -> troubleshooting)
a. can we do this from Java?
b. if a is possible, do this always
c. offer this in the options (default=on?)
d. is this a general Java setting/problem?
e. put "-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=lcd" in the launch shell script

    This problem does not occur with Debian 10 and the MATE desktop.
