InstallShield 2014 » InstallScript Language Reference
The DialogSetFont function sets the font for InstallScript dialogs that are displayed at run time. This function affects built-in InstallScript dialogs and custom InstallScript dialogs (that is, dialogs that are defined through EzDefineDialog or DefineDialog). This function does not affect dialogs that are displayed by calling the Windows API function MessageBox, which are displayed in the font specified by the user for message boxes (specified using the Windows Control panel). This function does not affect the text in the title bar of any dialog; the font of dialog title bars is set by Windows.

Additional Information
When changing the font of InstallShield dialogs, use a font that you know is available on any system that the setup is running on. Also, be sure to test the setup on a variety of screen resolutions to ensure that the font works correctly.
