Hi, put some lines like these in your $HOME/.gtkrc for gtk1 style "user-font" { font="-bitstream-bitstream vera serif-medium-r-normal-*-*-100-*-*-p-*-iso8859-15" } and in $HOME/.gtkrc-2.0 for gtk2 style "user-font" { font_name="Bitstream Charter 14" } I also recommend you have a look at gtk-theme-switch in ports, which lets you adjust gtk-themes/fonts easily. The gtk2-version wasn't in ports last time I checked, but you can easily compile it yourself.
