Another way to do it
String s = "The quick brown fox";
PGraphics pg;
void setup() {
size(200, 100, P2D);
background(200, 255, 200);
// P2D text
textSize(12);
fill(128, 0, 128);
text(s, 0, 20);
// Now for the alternative
pg = createGraphics(200, 30, JAVA2D);
pg.beginDraw();
pg.clear();
pg.textSize(12);
pg.fill(128, 0, 128);
pg.text(s, 0, 20);
pg.endDraw();
image(pg, 0, 24);
}
