Which .INI file did you change?  And did you change EVERYTHING needed to get
the new font to take effect?  Remember that, starting with 1.2, there can be
multiple .INI files (which can manipulated with the Prf* APIs), and the system
uses two:  C:/OS2.INI for general initialization stuff, and C:/OS2/OS2SYS.INI
for system initialization stuff (the '/' is a backslash)
