You can change the size and name of the font used by Program Manager for
icon titles. To do so, go to one of the following Registry subkeys:
HKEY_USERS\Default\Control Panel\Desktop
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
Change the following two values
IconTitleSize
IconTitleFaceName
to the size and name (respectively) of the font you want. For example,
the default values are:
IconTitleSize : REG_SZ : 9
IconTitleFaceName : REG_SZ : Helv
The value
which can currently be implemented in Windows 3.1 to change the Program
Manager font to bold, cannot be used to change the font in Windows NT 3.1.
While the value is documented, changing it from the default of "0" to "1"
in the Registry does not work. However, in Windows NT 3.5 this entry works
as expected.
