You can set the fonts and colors in your .qe/config file:

// copy it in ~/.qe/config 
// You can call any Qemacs command with a C like syntax. 
// underscores can be used in command names instead of dash. 
// simple key definition 
// C-key : Control + key 
// M-key : Meta + key 
// Read util.c to get all the key names 
global_set_key("C-x s", "set-style"); 

// set X11 display size 
//set_display_size(85, 38); 
//disable backups
//set_backup_mode(0);

set_style("default", "font-size", "14");  
//set_system_font("sans", "helvetica,unifont"); 
//set_system_font("serif", "times,unifont"); 

// simple styles 
set_style("mode-line", "background-color", "grey"); 
set_style("mode-line", "color", "black"); 
set_style("minibuf","background-color","white"); 
set_style("minibuf","color","black"); 
set_style("status","background-color","white"); 
set_style("status","color","black"); 
set_style("default","background-color","white"); 
set_style("default","color","black"); 
set_style("status","color","red"); 
set_style("string","color","magenta"); 
set_style("keyword","color","3d33af"); 
set_style("tag","color","3d33af"); 
set_style("function","color","1d1d6f"); 
set_style("comment", "color", "red"); 
set_style("variable", "color", "6f0f05"); 
set_style("type", "color", "0b752e"); 

//set_style("comment", "font-family", "sans"); 
//set_style("comment", "font-size", "12"); 
//set_style("comment", "font-style", "italic"); 
//set_style("keyword", "font-family", "serif"); 
//set_style("keyword", "font-size", "18"); 
//set_style("function", "font-family", "serif"); 
//set_style("function", "font-size", "18"); 
//set_style("function", "font-weight", "bold");
