Which document property controls the font of text in a sketch?
I've changed both the Annotation and Dimension font, but when I add text to a sketch it hasn't changed. Is this a bug or have I not found the correct setting?

Just to clarify, I guess you know how to change the font in the PropertyManager....???
This setting works for me, if you want to apply it on a document level.

It must be a "feature" of 2020 SP5. I've changed my "notes" (and every other document font setting) and it makes no difference. I'm going to have to modify each text I create.

In theory, if "Use document font" is checked, it should follow that.

I just tried this and it changed the font in the sketch. I would guess you need to change it in the template if you want it to be permanent.
