>>>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 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?

Not that I know off

But, depending on the report design, if they are not to narrow spaced (field to field), you can increase the width of each field by adding a bit to field in the frx. Normaly it's not to much to add.
Just something with ascan and replace.

The other way would be to change reports font this way.
