The current implementation of RadHtmlChart explicitly specifies font-family and font-size settings on the server-side, which are then serialized and used by the Kendo widget, so the skin-specific settings are ignored. For example, the Material skin should define a "Roboto" font-family, but this is overriden by "Arial" in the final serialization, so the skin configuration does not have any effect. The default values of the server-side font settings can be removed in order to allow such customization and can be defined in the skins file instead.
