Answer 1

Use real code tags (see Formatting tips before you post). Have you ever tried to preview your posting?
Why do you want to draw Strings on a JPanel in the first place (as apposed to do what normal people do, that is use some kind of JTextComponent)? Is it because you want a different Border or background color than the JTextArea's defaults?
