[Solved] Openbox doesn't set fonts

Openbox won't set my fonts. It keeps them as the default, Sans, no matter what I set them to. See this screenshot for an example of what I mean. What do you think is wrong?

You're changing fonts in the wrong place, openbox settings will only affect the font in the window decoration and the desktop right click menu. What you want is GTK font settings, these can be changed e.g. with gtk-chtheme

Thanks. I just made a .gtkrc-2.0 file and added some commands instead.
