I got the file from package openjdk-7-jre-headless and copied it to
/usr/lib/jvm/j2re1.7-oracle/lib/fontconfig.Ubuntu.properties but it
doesn't seem to make any difference.

This is the result from your file.

Font family: Ubuntu plain=** TrueType Font: Family=Ubuntu Name=Ubuntu
style=0 fileName=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ubuntu-font-
family/Ubuntu-R.ttf bold=null italic=null bolditalic=** TrueType Font:
Family=Ubuntu Name=Ubuntu Bold Italic style=3
fileName=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ubuntu-font-family/Ubuntu-BI.ttf

Maybe I'm wrong on Ubuntu Light rather than Ubuntu being used. I've
attached a screenshot.

Title:
  Fat fonts in Swing applications

Status in OpenJDK:
  New
Status in “fonts-unfonts-core” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “openjdk-7” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Since I upgraded to Ubuntu 12.04 I noticed that the fonts in Java
  Swing applications use the bold font weight. This looks really ugly
  and takes up to much space.
