Perhaps this has been answered before, but I have just returned to this
system after a years absence, so...
I have been trying to change fonts in a dialog box by using the
FONT statement in the resource file. I try to select COURIER
(and in fact do get Courier) but the font appears bold. When I look
at the fonts available using SHOWFONT, it shows Courier displayed
with much less weight.
The reason I selected Courier is that I am trying to present (in a List Box)
a description (several words to the left) and a pneumonic code to the
right. If I use proportional fonts the pneumonics don't align correctly.
Any suggestions, the Courier font looks rather ugly in this context.
