Font Dialog: The Font dialog box appears with six combo boxes of a simple style, a group box that contains the font label, a combo box of a drop down font style, and a size box for the font size. Below these combo boxes are more style boxes to generate foreground and background colors as well as more font styles such as superscript or all uppercase fonts.
