I know that it may be a very newbie question but can i give my strings a font?

No, you can only give a TEXT a font. For example:

//WETTER
STRING* weather=" ";

TEXT* weather_txt =
{
layer = 12;
pos_x = 10;
pos_y = 10;
size_y = 40;
font=stranded_font;//FONT
strings=1;

}
str_cpy((weather_txt.pstring)[0], weather); //copy string in text, place this in main function

Thanks alot!Exacly what i was looking for!
