Hello,
I think you only want the first line here, right? You loaded Garamond
Premier Pro twice as \initialfont, so you just changed it from 36 to
12pt...

If you use \greinitialformat as written, you will still be using the
default document font, not Garamond. You need to redefine
\greinitialformat to use your \initialfont (replace the \fontsize
invocation above):
\def\greinitialformat#1{%
{\initialfont #1}%
}

Same thing, except you would define a new font, loading an italic this
time. Something like:
\font\myitalicfont="/whatever/path/to/GaramondPremrPro-It.otf" at 12pt
Then
\def\greitalic#1{%
{\myitalicfont #1}%
}
Every size and shape you want needs to be loaded individually. But as
Elie said, using an updated fontspec package allows you to set the
fonts for the whole document at once (kinda similar to how you can say
\usepackage{kpfonts or times or palatino...} and it sets all the font
sizes/shapes in your document to the same typeface/font family
automatically, but fontspec uses your normal otf/ttf fonts). It will
be part of TeXLive/MacTeX 2010, if you don't want to upgrade things
piecemeal.
