Good to know.

So not a bad font after all, hmm...

But did you specify a custom or modified stylesheet for those reports?


What is the stylesheet assigned to the invoice report in Options > General?


What is the font assignment for non-headings in Edit > Style Sheets > Default?


Are headings assigned the same font?

*Where* are you specifying ‘menlo’?

If in the gtk CSS file, that will *only* affect the UI, so the toolbar, the tabs, and the content of the CoA and the Register.

It *will not* affect reports - so you are seeing two different fonts on the screen in that shot. (and a third - the system font in the window’s title bar)

That screenshot I presume also is an example of what you mean by ‘error messages.’ While it does function that way, the message is printed out as text of the report. (essentially it is a report with an error message rather than your data) But that is different than a pop-up dialog error message. (which *would* be affected by the gtk CSS file)

That screenshot then is affected by the assigned report stylesheet, which is at least – ‘default’, if you haven’t changed it. (see above questions on stylesheets)
