It is the default font for Freelancer (or FLHook, I cannot recall) and it automatically switches if it's installed. I recall this being a problem several years ago on one of the FL servers, as I saw threads about it on the Starport.

Huh. Learn something new every day.
What's weird is that automatically completely overrides fonts.ini and rich_fonts.ini, and it seems to do it entirely from within Freelancer.exe, sooooooo back to the reverse engineering mines I go then.

This is bit of a grave dig, but it turns out the original font is referenced inside of common.dll, along with another. It seems the game has overrides in place if certain fonts are detected. From what I can tell these fonts are:
Vibrocentric and Arial Unicode MS.
Code:
File: Common.dll
143DC0: 56 69 62 72 6F 63 65 6E 74 72 69 63 (Vibrocentric)
143DD0: 41 72 69 61 6C 20 55 6E 69 63 6F 64 65 20 4D 53 (Arial Unicode MS)
