Are you just using TMainMenu at the moment?

You could switch to the TActionManager components and use a
TActionMainMenuBar. You can then set the font properties of this
component to be whatever you like as long as you set the UseSystemFont
property to false.

Send me a private email and I'll send you a sample application showing
it if you like.

cheers,
Jeremy
