It is also possible to wrap a font into a small component and stream it:

type
  TFontWrapper= class( TComponent )
  private
    FFont: TFont;
    Constructor Create( aOwner: TComponent ); override;
    Destructor Destroy; override;
    Procedure SetFont( value: TFont );
  published
    property Font: TFont read FFont write SetFont;
  end;
{ TFontWrapper }
constructor TFontWrapper.Create(aOwner: TComponent);
begin
  inherited;
  FFont :=TFont.Create;
end;
destructor TFontWrapper.Destroy;
begin
  FFOnt.Free;
  inherited;
end;
procedure TFontWrapper.SetFont(value: TFont);
begin
  FFont.Assign( value );
end;
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
  helper: TFontWrapper;
begin
  If not Assigned(ms) then
    ms:= TMemoryStream.Create
  Else
    ms.Clear;
  helper := TFontWrapper.Create( nil );
  try
    helper.font := label1.font;
    ms.WriteComponent( helper );
  finally
    helper.free;
  end; { finally }
  label1.font.size := label1.font.size + 2;
end;
procedure TForm1.Button2Click(Sender: TObject);
var
  helper: TFontWrapper;
begin
  If not Assigned(ms) then Exit;
  ms.Position := 0;
  helper := TFontWrapper.Create( nil );
  try
    ms.ReadComponent( helper );
    label1.font := helper.font;
  finally
    helper.free;
  end; { finally }
end;

Нужно сохранять атрибуты шрифта (имя, размер и т.п.) а не сам обьект TFont. После считывания этой информации следует проверить существует ли такой шрифт, прежде чем его использовать. Чтобы не показаться голословным дополню ответ Borland'а своим примером сохранения/чтения шрифта в/из реестра
