How to change panel font?

I am trying to change the panel font, specially for the Application's Menu (Whisker menu).

I have found hundreds of tutorial on how to change the color of the panel, size, etc... but not how to change the app menu font.

If anyone knows how to do it, I would like to change it to Droid Sans Bold - size 10.

I don't think it is a very hard thing to do, I am just not very tech savy.

Hello and welcome.

specially for the Application's Menu (Whisker menu).

You can use pango markup for this. See: https://community.linuxmint.com/tutorial/view/1925.
Try a markup like:

<span font_desc="Droid Sans Bold 10">Applications</span>

Re: How to change panel font?

it should be possible to theme this directly with someting like:

style "xfcewhiskermenufont"{
font_name="Droid Sans Bold 10"}
widget "*whiskermenu-window*GtkLabel*" style "xfcewhiskermenufont"
