DesignSpark PCB: fonts?

How does one change the fonts used for component pin names, values etc? From the attached, I've clearly managed to make the 7-segment LEDs have a nice tidy font on the pin names, but not on the PIC on the right. I just can't remember what I did!

Go Shift T, on the Design Technology dialogue select Text Styles; for Symbol Names, Pin Numbers, etc.  You can then select any Windows fonts you have installed.  If these fonts are going to be your standard then go File / Save Technology and then when you start a new design you have all your fonts plus anything else you have set all ready to use.

Trying again ...

I thought I had done that. Is it possible that the two components use different DT files? If so, how do I change them?

 

Futher to this, I've found that I keep getting new styles, such as Normal_1 and they are "in use" so I can't get rid of them.

Any thoughts on this anyone?

Hello? Anyone there?

I've since been playing, and I've discovered a possible bug. Despite changing the Text Style in the component to the correct style, when I view the schematic and change the bogus styles to a large font, it seems the component is still using the bogus style.

I've tried all combinations of deleting the styles from the component, and saving the Technology file.

I'm tearing my hair out here, please can someone from the DesignSpart Team look into this for me?

The only way I have found to fix this is to delete the component then insert it again. Looks like a bug in the Update Components section to me ...
