I believe the idea is to allow the user to specify font size rather than 
the application. Part of Desktop GUI development is allowing your 
program to fit the customer's needs (ie 10 years ago I preferred tiny 
little fonts, and now that I'm going blind they get progressively larger).

Font sizes are specified in 'System' -> 'Preferences' -> 'Fonts' under 
GNOME in FC6.

If you really want to specify your own font, you may want to use an rc 
file: http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.2/gtk/gtk-Resource-Files.html
