If you want to change the application fonts in programs like Skype and Virtual Box. You may need to pop the following into a terminal…

sudo apt-get install qt3-qtconfig

or maybe…

sudo apt-get install qt4-qtconfig

I’m not sure which version you will need but I know that on Intrepid you need qt4… which i think gets installed when you install skype for example.

Anyway look under ‘System > Preferences’ select ‘QT4 Settings’ you will then be able to set the font to the same size as your application font that you have set in Ubuntu. Odd font sizes bother me so I had to find out how to sort this out! I hope this helps someone else to…
