There is no such about:config entry. Read up here (Mozilla there means any of Mozilla Suite, SeaMonkey, Firefox & Thunderbird): http://www.mozilla.org/unix/dpi.html
there most certainly is, and it is in the article you cite, just above 'Chosing Your Mozilla'.
I didn't just cite it, I wrote its last revision, an extensive overhaul, inspired largely by repeated threads like this one here and on other mailing lists: http://cvs-www.mozilla.org/webtools/bonsai/cvslog.cgi?file=mozilla-org/html/unix/dpi.html&rev=&root=/cvsroot/ and am the last to have been tweaking on http://www.mozilla.org/unix/customizing.html : http://cvs-www.mozilla.org/webtools/bonsai/cvslog.cgi?file=mozilla-org/html/unix/customizing.html&rev=&root=/cvsroot/ My response was to the discussion of directly controlling fonts via about:config. There is no direct way to do it; there are no about:config entries for UI font-family nor UI font-size. Changing browser.display.screen_resolution via about:config is a profile-specific kludge for those who can't manage to get their system DPI correctly set, which when done benefits all Gecko profiles & system users, and not just when running Mozilla.org apps. Note that that article section attempts to get the user to get the system DPI correctly set first before mentioning the pref setting. -- "I can do all things through Him who gives me strength."
