Try using something like Xfontsel to find out exactly what font the GTK apps are using. Compare it with other regular X apps.
It may be a problem with the order of the font lines in XF86Config-4. Plus, what exactly did you do in the Gnome control panel, and what happened?... Give a bit more relavent information and perhaps we can help you. Good luck.
