[Qgis-user] Customising QGIS DuFour install - Windows

[Johanna.Botman at griffith.nsw.gov.au]

Thanks for the answer Jonathan, but I don't believe this answers my
question.

If I change the font setting under Settings | Options | General, it also
changes ALL the fonts for the GUI. I only want to be able to change the
default font for the composer for a particular project.

I have been told that I can edit the project file in a text editor and
change all font instances to the font that I want. But I'm not happy with
that solution either because it would mean completing the project and then
changing everything. I would prefer to be able to see what my layout looks
like as I am creating it. Font size and font weight play a big part in the
look and feel of a map. If I changed the font in the project file, I'd
probably have to revisit all my design decisions as well.

Hi Johanna,
  In Settings -> Options, under the "General" tab you can set the
application font, including size. This seems to carry over to Composer, or
does for me at least.

The second point sounds like a bug - I'd suggest reporting it to the bug
tracker with examples.

Cheers,
Jonathan
