I thought that my current installer worked at both font settings just
fine, and that this issue had to deal with a one of the advanced
windows font settings where you can manipulate title bar fonts, icon
fonts, etc...

Does anybody know now to force the installer to keep it's specified
font size and not the user's font size?

Thanks,
Jon
