Exact font is Arial. This is defined in gschem/src/o_text.c in gschem
sources. It is used for displaying, for printing output gschem uses
Helvetica (and this is defined in libgeda/src/f_print.c). If the exact
font is not found, X window system will substitute it with some other
font which in its opinion fits best (and the printing system operates in
the same way).
