Adding Parallax fonts to SpinTool IDE

I use Ubuntu Linux. When looking at a file in Obex using FireFox there were some unrecognized characters in the code and when loaded in the Spin Tools IDE. Thanks to @VonSzarvas I found the font in a message on the forums:

I then installed a font manager to install the font. Made changes in Spin Tools at Edit/Preferences to apply the font in the editor.
I really like the circuit drawing capability of the Parallax font so now I need to learn how to include them.
Images of the differences.

    The Parallax font doesn't render perfectly at every size, even in Windows were it was designed. I have used that font with Spin Tools IDE, but had to set the size to 15 or 16 to get it to display nicely.

    I started with the Parallax2 and will be resizing checks as well as trying the other versions.
