Due to (a bug in) the way fonts are rendered in the “SQL Query Area” of the MySQL Query Browser[1], most of the fonts available end up looking clipped. Beyond aesthetics, you might want to change the default font due to its lack of support for UTF-8 characters. You can change the “Code Font” choice under Tools > Options > General Options.
I prefer Arial Unicode MS 8.3pt for default & data, but due to it rendering poorly in the code area I’m using Bitstream Vera Sans Mono 8pt as a tolerable alternative. Both support UTF-8.
