Hello everyone,

Using Mathematica 7.0 I can't change the font od greek characters. Try the
following example:

{Style[{FromCharacterCode[16^^0046, "UTF8"],
   FromCharacterCode[16^^0061, "UTF8"],
   FromCharacterCode[16^^03BE, "UTF8"]}, FontFamily -> "Cambria", 32],
 Style[{FromCharacterCode[16^^0046, "UTF8"],
   FromCharacterCode[16^^0061, "UTF8"],
   FromCharacterCode[16^^03BE, "UTF8"]},
  FontFamily -> "Linux Libertine O", 32],
 Style[{FromCharacterCode[16^^0046, "UTF8"],
   FromCharacterCode[16^^0061, "UTF8"],
   FromCharacterCode[16^^03BE, "UTF8"]}, FontFamily -> "Arial", 32]
 }

One should see that the font of the latin characters changes, but not the
font of the greek characters.
The same issue is described
