need help setting font sizes

[Matt Price]

hi,

i'm experimenting with openbox and am having osme kind of issue with the
fonts.  in gnome, and also in the openbox/gnome session, fonts look just
like i want them to.  but in the plain openbox session, fonts in most
applications -- including evolution, gnome-terminal, and i think firefox
as well -- are HUGE by comparison to the way they're displayed in gnome.
the only thing i can think is that the dpi setting is different in
openbox -- but that's a wild guess.  I'm just wondering if anyone can
help me out with this?  this is on a ubuntu hardy box, running openbox
3.4.6.1-0ubuntu2.  i also use the nvidia driver in Xorg -- 169.12 right now.  

Thanks much,

matt
