I find small fonts / 96dpi too small
Do most people use the large font size / 120dpi?
Custom font size possibly?
Curious....
TIA!

For Windows, you might try increasing just the element you are interested in
within the display properties appearance settings. Some programs allow for
their own display font sizes as well. I have also heard that running a
larger font can***up the display in some programs, but I have never
tried it. I use 1024x768 on this 21" monitor because 1280x1024 looks too
small to me in Windows.

Your best resources for getting this support are:
http://www-scf.usc.edu/~vibber/linux/TrueType-HOWTO.html
http://www.frii.com/~meldroc/Font-Deuglification.html
so:
create dir /usr/share/fonts/ttf
copy ttf fonts to use to /usr/share/fonts/ttf/
then
$cd /usr/share/fonts/ttf
$/usr/sbin/ttmkfdir -o fonts.dir
$/usr/sbin/chkfontpath --add /usr/share/fonts/ttf
$/etc/rc.d/init.d/xfs restart
