Just check the cSS file...
When you're editing your theme, on the right you can switch to EDIT CSS.
You'll find the font choice for any part of the gallery.

hi if your changing your font to non-standard, nobody else can see the font unless they also have the font, be sure to add alternate font.
e.g. font-family: "YOUR FONT", arial;

open any word processing software then check the font name their. then use that in your css file.

That's right ...

The CSS for the flash gallery works just like it works in HTML. You need to use a font that all users have on their systems, or at least deploy a font family to make sure you assign backup fonts.

You can not simply assign any custom font to be used, as this would require us to embed all the worlds fonts in the gallery, and that is of course not feasible.

CSS is a category for itself in the world of web development, but a lot of it is quite easy to understand just by looking at the code.
