What do you mean when you say "it uses the system fonts"? What does
sun-java use instead?

I tried to change the application system font, from the apparence
applet, but the font did not change in netbeans.
Anyway it's not only that the font is bigger, but as you can see in
the screenshots, the spacing is huge.

>From netbeans I can only change the syntax font, not the menu font.

Bug description:
using openjdk 6b12-0ubuntu6

running netbeans 6.1, there are some problems with graphic. Maybe the problem is in rendering fonts.
Everything is bigger in comparison to sun java.
Even the UML editor has the same text problems for labels: the label text is not inside the field, as it should be, but under it.
