Looking at the screenshot, it seems that you may have
a high DPI setting for your resolution.

Unlike other apps, as Font Chooser, which use absolute font sizes,
Jwdp font is proportional to DPI.

So with font size is 10pt, for normal DPI=96 you see font as is.
But if DPI=120, the actual size is increased, so it's 12pt or so.

To know for sure if that's the issue, try to set DPI value
to 96 in display settings in Linux.
