The Smart GUI fonts here in 10.2 look the same as the rest of my KDE desktop
fonts as set in Personal Settings. Look in there and see if you have checked
to use KDE fonts in GTK applications. When done, look in ~/.gtkrc* files to
see any font settings you might want to tweak manually.

According to http://labix.org/smart/config-options?highlight=%28qt%29 QT is
not yet implemented, but since that's an old page, I'd check to be sure you
have a file ~/.qt/qtrc file with a font= line in it set to something
appropriate for your needs, just in case the Smart you are using is built
with QT instead of GTK.

Check also in your environment for an Xft.dpi variable setting. It it exists
you might want to set it higher. If it doesn't, you might want to set it in
~/.Xdefaults - e.g. Xft.dpi: 120 (to make fonts equivalent to the windoz
"large fonts" setting). Any change you make to Xft.dpi could affect a lot of
other apps, particularly Firefox and/or SeaMonkey.

Not all apps manage to see equal DPI, so if none of the above gets you
exactly what you want, a read of some of the following might be helpful:
