You could probably verify this through expermentation, but the
difference is:

Format -> Font gives you a popup menu that lists font family names.  

Format -> Choose Font... produces a dialog box for specifying the font

The latter interface is a bit easier to use if you have a large number
of fonts installed on your system.
