On running the swing motifLookandFeel  testcase with JDK we see that the trailing last character of text content of JLabel is getting truncated /clipped.
The truncation is see only on some characters such as "w" or "v" or "y". So we can say the clipping is occurring only on the character which has a right hand side elevations.

Run the testcase with JDK 1.4.X and JDK 1.5 X.
