I just moved to Eclipse and can't get used to the new font style. I'd like it to look exactly like IntelliJ Idea Community Edition 12. How do I change it?

Why do people use Eclipse instead of IntelliJ?

A: Eclipse is better than IntelliJ for large and complex projects. This is because it indexes the entire project during startup. IntelliJ IDEA, however, outshines Eclipse when it comes to dealing with existing projects.

In Eclipse, go to Window->Preferences, and select General->Appearance. You can change the font in there. I don't know what IntelliJ uses, but you can probably look it up in IntelliJ, and just match it.
