gnuplot: Hypertext with monospace?

Is there a way to show the hypertext label with monospace? I would like to align some text and numbers in a hypertext label in a table like manner. But I couldn't get a monospace font as the hypertext labels. If I add font "Monospace,10" I'll get an error message ... unexpected or unrecognized token. Trying to use "\t" in the label was also not successful. I am using Win7/64, wxt-terminal, gnuplot 5.2.6. Any ideas?

My code:

### hypertext with monospace?
reset session

set title "Hypertext with monospace?" font "Monospace,20"

set samples 10
plot '+' u 1:($1**2):(sprintf("%10s% 10g\n%10s% 10g","SomeValue",$1,"Square",$1**2)) \
    w labels hypertext point pt 7 ps 3 lc rgb "red" notitle 
### end of code

The result:

Apparently, the fonts need to be set with the terminal and cannot be set independently just for the hypertext labels. So, if you set 

set term wxt font "Monospace,12"

You'll get:

However, 

set term qt font "Monospace,12"

doesn't give monospace hypertext labels in a qt terminal. I don't know why.
