HI HC,
Pd has code automatically to do that, which is disabled in your font patch for some reason:
/* best is now the host font index for the desired font index i. */ sys_fontlist[i].fi_hostfontsize = atom_getintarg(3 * best + 2, argc, argv); sys_fontlist[i].fi_width = atom_getintarg(3 * best + 3, argc, argv); sys_fontlist[i].fi_height = atom_getintarg(3 * best + 4, argc, argv);
cheers Miller

I decided to take Pd out of the equation, so I did a quick test using just Tcl/Tk on Mac OS X and Ubuntu Studio. It looks like it confirms what I am talking about: for some reason 12 point is big on GNU/ Linux. So I think we can handle this by forcing 12 point fonts to actually use 11 point on GNU/Linux machines.
Here is the script and the screenshots:

If you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem.
