Droid X font size versus Bionic font size

Anyone coming from a Droid X to a Bionic notice that all the text/font/icon sizes are smaller than that of the X. This is even noticeable on the notification bar. Does anyone know if there is a way to increase this or why the X displays larger text sizes?
 
I am guessing but I will bet it has to do with the screen resolution on the Bionic. The X was 854x480 and the Bionic 960x540. The reason I would say this is because when I messed with an app that would basically change the resolution on the X it made the text smaller.

And there is no way to change font size similar to how you can change the viewable percentage in a browser window of a PC?

This is correct. Any picture or font is going to use a certain number of pixels. As there are more crammed into the same size, the font is going to take less space on the screen.
