      I’ve been looking for a way to change the display font from Courier to something else, but I cannot find the option to do so anywhere in Notepad++ itself, nor does a search here on the word “font” find anything remotely related to it. I get the idea that I’m stuck with Courier (or whatever the font is).

      So, can someone confirm that I’m stuck with the existing font, or give me the apparently top-secret method for changing fonts?

        It’s not all that difficult to find:

        Settings menu
        Style Configurator…
        then on the righthand top there is a groupbox called Font Style

        I like the “Consolas” font. :)

          Hello Mike and Scott,

          To be exact, I would add :

          • Choose the menu option Settings - Style Configurator…

          • In the Style configurator dialog, choose the Global Styles language

          • Then , select the Default Style style

          • Finally, in the Font Style area, you can select your favourite font and/or its size, too

          Best Regards,

          guy38

          P.S. :

          Mike, prefer monospaced fonts to others => Each character will use the same physical place, on your screen :-)
