This is old, but I was searching for info on related JFreeChart stuff and this came up.

Enabling scripting on the chart and add:

```python
def configureChart(data, chart):
	import java.awt.Font as Font
	
	# new font to use
	font = Font('Arial', Font.PLAIN, 10)
	
	# get domain axis
	plot = chart.getPlot()
	domainAxis = plot.getDomainAxis()
	
	# set font
	domainAxis.setTickLabelFont(font)

```
