Since Fixedsys is a raster font, it'll only display at sizes for which it
was originally authored. This is an ugly hack, but you could try supplying a
specific size only for Fixedsys:
font name>> windows-font-name "Fixedsys" =
[ 12 ] [ font size>> neg ] if ! nHeight
Factor normally passes CreateFont a negative value to ask for character size
rather than point size, which probably doesn't work well with Fixedsys.
Passing positive 12 should give you 12-pt Fixedsys.
