I'm not much of a Java Developer, but Swing was supposed to solve the problem of cross-platform GUI development. Have you tried specifying your font size by pixel height?

I mainly believe this stems from differences in fonts between Solaris, for instance, and linux. I would notice that fonts that looked fine in Solaris would look bold, and much larger, on Linux (or vice versa). This, of course, would cause Java's horrib^H^H^Hgreat layout system to rearrange widgets on the screen, resulting in some funky looking windows. The interm fix I used most of the time was to just resize the window until things looked ok. I never spent any time investigating a way to definitively solve the problem.
