What is the best way to display text?

Question

Hi,
I am developing a full screen presentation. I like to know which is the best way to display text with different styles and fonts.
When i use JLabel, i have to use HTML. But the presentation is not good as it does not have anti-alias property. Also i want the background to be seen behind the text. Note that all the text in a paragraph is not of same style. I want some words to be in different color and style.
Thanks,
Mathan

It works alos with JTextPane:
Try this :
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
public class MyTextPane extends JTextPane  {
     public void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
          Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)g;          
          g2d.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_TEXT_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_TEXT_ANTIALIAS_ON);          
          super.paintComponent(g2d);
     public static void main(String[] args) {
          JFrame f = new JFrame("test");
          f.getContentPane().add(new JScrollPane(new MyTextPane()));
          f.setBounds(200,200,300,400);
          f.setVisible(true);
