It will be OK if you use JComponent.paintComponent: the text will be clipped (in
fact the border will be painted over the text)

Try:
    Font f = (Font)javax.swing.UIManager.get("Label.font");
Now you have the font, but by subclassing JComponent like you have done, you have
lost the accessibility and the dynamic look and feel updates.
