A-Shell Reference

FONT = <font name>

Example:   FONT = Courier New

(Windows only, PASSTHROUGHpq must be off.) This command applies only to laser or graphics printers under Windows, and is used to specify the font face name in which output is to be printed. The default is for a fixed-pitch OEM-character-set font suitable for the printer. Note that Windows font selection is a "best match" affair, meaning that if the "perfect" font does not exist for your request, the closest available approximation will be selected instead. But this may not always be that close to what you wanted.

Note that you can change fonts in mid-report using embedded Print Directives.
