The default font for all languages is Tahoma. The font style and size depends on the corresponding settings for the individual phrases in the base language. You can change the font setting for a language that you have already configured. Because of the differences between the textual display of different languages, you can specify an appropriate font to ensure that your translated text fits correctly on buttons and other objects.
