Yep. First step to fix something broken... But then you found it didn't work.

Ok. What if you change your dpi setting and leave alone your font size?
This if from my XF86Config:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
HorizSync 30-77
VertRefresh 47-104
Option "DPMS"
DisplaySize 304 228
EndSection
The interesting part is "DisplaySize Xmm Ymm." My screen is setup at 1152x864
so:
1152 * 25.4 / 304 = ~96 dpi
864 * 25.4 / 228 = ~96 dpi
If you want to know the Xmm and Ymm values for your XF86Config do:
x-res * 25.4 / 96 = Xmm
y-res * 25.4 / 96 = Ymm
