Please DO READ the documentation.
Rdevga applies to *windows* devices: see its help page. On Windows, saving to JPEG or PNG is using a windows device.
The way fonts are chosen in postscript() is described on its help page. It is *definitely* using not Arial but Helvetica, even though your viewer might do a substitution.
There is a section in the FAQ on BUGS. Had you read it, you could have avoided wasting our time. Or even if you had read ?postscript.

I am trying to use the font of "TT Courier New: bold" to get the equal size of letters. The "TT Courier New: bold" is the 11th font listed in the Rdevga file.
You can just try a simple case:
plot(1:10, 1:10, xlab = "XILMV", font.lab = 11)
I save the plot in postscript format, and found the font in .ps file becomes Arial font. While I save the plot in JPEG or PNG format, everything is correct.
