[PD] Pd complete listing of internal Pd messages? - sending to the Pd window

The pd window text console is .pdwindow.text. You can send the -font command to it in TCL: https://tcl.tk/man/tcl8.6/TkCmd/options.htm#M-font <https://tcl.tk/man/tcl8.6/TkCmd/options.htm#M-font>

As for "internal Pd message" I don't believe there is one in this case as the core doesn't send setup info on this directly to the GUI like it does for the patch window canvases. This is why you didn't get a response yet with the exact answer to your request: I don't believe there is one. What you can do is use one of the GUI plugins and/or external objects which allows you to send TCL to the GUI directly.
