In some contexts across the games, all of the text is rendered using a default system font, rather than one defined in the games' resource files. In most cases, this will be the raster version of Courier, available by default on all Windows systems. Such contexts include display settings screens, loading screens, certain error messages, the [[Wonderland Adventures Editor]]'s level design view, and [[YEA]]. | |||

If the user installs a vector font named Courier in addition to the existing raster font of the same name, the vector font will take precedence, and the text will be displayed at an extremely small size. In addition, the particular choice of font is locale-dependent: if the system locale is set to Bulgarian, for example, the text will similarly be very small,<ref>[https://pcpuzzle.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=28071 I found a fix for super smaller font in Editor/TOW loading text/Vault/Game Options Screen]</ref> and in some other locales, such as Hebrew, a different typeface may be chosen altogether. | |||
