Reinstall Freelancer. It's the simplest Way to fix that. Save your Accounts first of course.
Otherwise you'll need to find some Font Files which Names I don't know and put it into the right Folder. Maybe you are lucky and Cannon posts in this Thread.

You know. I have the same issue with the server notifications (like "When a player has been killed in PVP...") come in a font about 4 times as large. My guess is that Windows 7 redefined that font. I'll toy around with the fonts.cfg file and see if I can't get this resolved when I find the time...

Your installation of Freelancer is fubared. Freelancers installation program installs the necessary fonts. If you just installed Freelancer on Win7 without running the installation with administration rights, it is probable that the fonts was denied installation in to the system Fonts folder.
You can find fonts on the Freelancer CD in the /FONTS folder and manually install them. Although a better recourse would be to deinstall Freelancer and run the installation as Administrator, since there are good chances other stuff got broken if you installed Freelancer in the default paths without running the installation program with Administrator rights.
