TFont is a TPersistent, so all is taken care of by the streaming system;
you just have to create one in your constructor, publish it as a
property and add a setter method which does an Assign. The VCL is full
of sample code about this issue.
Also, you could make your own "label-options-object" a TPersistent
descendant, as someone suggested, so all the subproperties would be
displayed as a drill-down list.
