I just started a NEw DUMMY.FIL in XyWin, typed a few words, then hit Alt-M,
F, selected a different Typeface (than the default, which is established
via the UF variable in XWSET.DFL), different pointsize, hit Enter, and --
Voil?! New typeface. If this doesn't work for you, then there is
something fundamentally wrong with your setup. I think Ctrl-T may also
take you to the typeface dialog box...
