Hello , First try to change your preferences (assuming you use GNOME): in System / Preferences you choose Fonts. A window appears similar to the following:

Hope it will help you
Hello , go to details in that menu and change the amount of DPI (upper left) then your font size changesQuote:

It is very weird. My first experience where KDE control center and default fonts didn't apply to Gnome apps. I am in Suse now, and didn't install Gnome, and don't remember what the command is to bring up Gnome font config. Give that a try though.
Hello , Linux applications use the DPI reported by the X server when converting from font point size to pixels. "Sans 10" will be a smaller number of pixels if your X server is configured at 75 DPI than if it is at 100 DPI.
