Basic font for labels in a Base form

     Edit a Base form using LibreOffice 4.0.2.2 (32 bit Debian). 
Control+right click a label in the form. Select Control from the context 
menu. Click the elliplse ( ... ) for the Font property. Click the Font 
tab in the Character dialog.
      Why is it that the Family font listed contains eight different 
fonts as the "(Default)" font? "Tools > Options > LibreOffice Writer > 
Basic Fonts" permits me to select my fonts and font sized that I want to 
use. Why does Base ignore these selections?
     Observation: LibreOffice 4.0.2.1 64 bit Debian uses the fonts I 
selected in "Tools > Options > LibreOffice Writer > Basic Fonts".
