How to change the font family

I use Qt 5.3.

I've tried to set the QApplication::setFont() and also the font.family property of the QML component:

import QtQuick 2.3
import QtQuick.Controls 1.2

ApplicationWindow {
    id: mainWindow
    visible: true
    width: 640
    height: 480

    Text {
        font.pointSize: 24;
        color: Qt.rgba(0.2,0.2,0.2,1);
        font.family: "Courier";
        text: qsTr("MyText");
    }
}

But, nothing seems to work. The only thing that happens on using setFont() is that the font size scale.

The recommended one for "Fixed" is Helvetica.

The best monospace solution, I think is: Droid Sans Mono.
