--- Comment #1 from Guido Berhörster 2014-07-19 19:03:55 UTC ---
The GTK3 default font (Sans 10pt) is fine, the problem is that the X server
hardcodes a pixed density of 96 DPI and your monitor's DPI is probably
significantly higher so that fonts at 10 pt are rendered smaller than intended.
That is not a bug but intended behavior (see
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=23705) although I personally find
it highly questionable.
The solution is to either configure Xorg by editing
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/50-monitor.conf and adding a "DisplaySize" setting with
the dimendions of the monitor which makes the X server calculate the actual DPI
of your hardware or to force the correct DPI in
/etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf through the "xft-dpi" setting. The latter
will only affect the greeter while the former should have a system-wide effect
on font rendering.
