>>Is there any way to change the system default font. I want to switch a bunch of my reports from Courier New to Consolas. Some of our customers are still running XP and don't have the Consolas font. I can force fields on the report to degrade to a font of my choosing using the dynamic styles, but labels seem to degrade to a system default font.

I have hundreds of reports that are just lines of text in Courier New. I am trying to implement FoxyPreviewer for emailing and saving as pdf but since it uses GDI+ the Courier New font needs a little more horizontal space and now my reports don't fix. Consolas seems to be just a little bit skinnier and makes a great replacement. It fits and looks nice. Is there some other monospace font that will work well in this situation?
