hi,

qt designer lets me choose fonts for the qui widgets, but i was wondering,
what happens if a user of my application doesn't have that font installed?

cheers

Then a replacement font is used. Whether that's a good replacement or a 
poor one, you cannot tell without trying.

You shouldn't choose fonts unless you're shipping them with your 
application, or you're sure the font will be there. And you should have a 
very good reason to use that particular font, not what the user chose in 
his system configurations.
