I like to have certain types of file look different on screen, 
perhaps for the same reason you want yours to open with fonts 
differing. Here's what I do:

I use Languages preferences to a) map file suffixes to 
languages, and then b) for each language important to me, click 
Options to set things like background color and text color to 
distinct combinations.

Tying the color schemes to file suffixes makes this work even 
when I didn't create the file originally.

Differing background colors let me quickly distinguish template 
files, data tables, and program code.

This doesn't do quite what you ask, because the the Languages 
preferences don't provide font choices. But it might be another 
way to get what you need.
