Font picker

The font picker window lets you choose the font family, typeface, and size for any selected text in your chart.

You can select to use the default font family. The selection of the default font family is set in one place for the whole chart and can be set in a style sheet.

At the bottom of the dialog box, you will find a preview of the font.

For the font size, you can select the unit as either pixel or points. A pixel here is defined as 1/96 of an inch and point as 1/72 of an inch.
