DuplicateFormatFlagsException, FormatFlagsConversionMismatchException, IllegalFormatCodePointException, IllegalFormatConversionException, IllegalFormatFlagsException, IllegalFormatPrecisionException, IllegalFormatWidthException, MissingFormatArgumentException, MissingFormatWidthException, UnknownFormatConversionException, UnknownFormatFlagsException

DuplicateFormatFlagsException	Unchecked exception thrown when duplicate flags are provided in the format specifier.
FormatFlagsConversionMismatchException	Unchecked exception thrown when a conversion and flag are incompatible.
IllegalFormatCodePointException	Unchecked exception thrown when a character with an invalid Unicode code point as defined by `Character.isValidCodePoint` is passed to the `Formatter`.
IllegalFormatConversionException	Unchecked exception thrown when the argument corresponding to the format specifier is of an incompatible type.
IllegalFormatFlagsException	Unchecked exception thrown when an illegal combination flags is given.
IllegalFormatPrecisionException	Unchecked exception thrown when the precision is a negative value other than `-1`, the conversion does not support a precision, or the value is otherwise unsupported.
IllegalFormatWidthException	Unchecked exception thrown when the format width is a negative value other than `-1` or is otherwise unsupported.
MissingFormatArgumentException	Unchecked exception thrown when there is a format specifier which does not have a corresponding argument or if an argument index refers to an argument that does not exist.
MissingFormatWidthException	Unchecked exception thrown when the format width is required.
UnknownFormatConversionException	Unchecked exception thrown when an unknown conversion is given.
UnknownFormatFlagsException	Unchecked exception thrown when an unknown flag is given.

Unchecked exception thrown when a format string contains an illegal syntax or a format specifier that is incompatible with the given arguments. Only explicit subtypes of this exception which correspond to specific errors should be instantiated.
