I think OOo gets its idea of screen resolution from the X resource
database, whereas many other applications use the X server's resolution.
What is the output of the following commands?

    xrdb -q | grep dpi
    xdpyinfo | grep resolution

Do the two results differ?

The "use system font" option works in a GNOME session, but I can't vouch
for its effectiveness elsewhere.
