Sorry I can't help you at your fonts problem, but the classic theme will be automatically used if you add these line to your winnt.sif filea, as these will turn your Windows Classic Theme and Classic Startmenu ON:

[Shell] 
DefaultStartPanelOff=Yes
DefaultThemesOff=Yes

To disable all effects you need to follow these steps:

1. Create a file named cmdlines.txt with the following content:

[COMMANDS]
".\INSTALLS.CMD"

2. Create a file named INSTALLS.CMD with the following content:

@echo off
regedit /s %systemdrive%\install\visuals.reg

3. Copy both file into your $OEM$ Folder!!

4. Create a file named visuals.reg with the following content:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

;Disable ALL Visual Effects[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\VisualEffects]
"VisualFXSetting"=dword:00000002

5. Copy visuals.reg into your $OEM$\$1\install folder!

Everything will be set before the first bootup of Windows XP!

Hope I could help you on this.

Although I don't like Cleartype (makes me feel like I'm drunk) here you go:

;Enable Cleartype
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
"FontSmoothingType":=dword:00000002
