Setting fonts in windows

Hi,

 

Has anyone successfully changed the UI fonts in Windows? I tried changing them as suggested in manual (i.e. by creating InterViews file and adding the line *font: *-helvetica-...), but it does not work. PDP++ spews out a 'Cant find font' error message and defaults to the rather ungainly system font. mswin-scale attribute doesn't seem to work either. Other attributes such as background, color etc seem to work fine, so the problem is not with the way the config file is setup.

 

The look and feel is bearable for the most part with this default font, but causes problems sometime with some windows eating up a large amount screen real estate. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
