I'm pretty certain that only the OSD themes do.  We draw the fonts 
directly in the OSD themes.  In the GUI themes, we ask Qt for a QFont 
(Qt manages the fonts/characters for us).  The OSD is the same in trunk 
as -fixes, but when it's converted to mythui, it may become more like 
the GUI themes (requiring a system-installed font).

I'm guessing you're actually using the closest match among the fonts you 
have installed (or the font specified by your system's font substitutions).

Move the font out of that theme dir then restart, and I don't think 
you'll see a difference.  Then install the font on your system as Robert 
mentioned, and restart, and you may see a difference.
