setFont is a function that is part of gc.
Sets the font for drawing text and measuring text size.

This has been introduced in TI-Nspire OS 3.0 (Changes).

| Parameter | Type | Description |

| string | the font's name : "serif" or "sansserif" | |
| string | "r" for regular, "i" for italic, "b" for bold, "bi" for bold & italic | |
| number | a number (decimals are OK) from 6 to 255 |
Example
previousFont = gc:setFont("serif","bi",12) -- sets the font to Serif, Bold & Italic, Size 12. It also sets the name of the previous font (the one used before this function) in the variable 'previousFont'
