How are you comparing?
A: Looking into the PostScript code in the files, and identifying
   the font-sizes where they are set in the code?
B: Comparing apparent font sizes when looking at two plots on screen?
C: Comparing apparent font sizes when looking at plots as printed
   on paper (and, in this case, have the plots been included in an
   enacapsulated document as EPS graphics)?
