I20060704-0800, WinXP.
I found this while trying to recreate bug #29548.

- Ensure that your workbench dialog font is set to the system default.
- Switch to Windows Large Fonts mode (Control Panel>Display>Appearance).
- Open the preference page and go to the Colors and Fonts Page.
- Note that it is still using the smaller dialog font.  Most of the pages in the preferences dialog use the larger system dialog font.

If you switch the dialog font to something other than system default, the Colors and Fonts page will honor it.  But if you switch back to system default, it uses the small font again.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
