It sounds like you just need to change the font. As Lisandro mentioned, there are different fonts installed with different Linux distros, so this isn't an easy task. If you really want to do this in a way that ensures a slim font, you have to write code to choose the proper font. Something like a list of font names to check, and a set of strings where you test the width of the printed string with each font until you find an acceptable font.
