I wrote a program, used font.name=default for allmost everything ... it was looking as Arial font. Fine.
It was on a Windows 8 machine. Then I copied the program to a Windows XP machine to check. Where static text and others are written with something looking as a New Times Roman ... and sometimes not fitting in the field width ... and be splitted! I undestood there is something about windows default font. Googled ... ... ... On the my W8 machine default font (from registers) are Microsoft Sans Serif and Tahoma ... diferent. I made a test. In the attached image, the first text is with default, the second with Arial, both with bold mode. Arial was the closest font from default I found ... but still a bit diferent. Question 1): which default font is used with Lazarus ? Question 2): is there a way I can set the default font in Lazarus? Thank for your help Philippe PS. F1 in font.name ... error 404.
