The first one [1] links to the "type1cm" package which allows "Arbitrary size font selection in LaTeX" (not sure yet, but it seems to be limited to CM fonts), so that scalable (CM) fonts are used. The second one [2] shows a practical example on doing this (examples for 10.5pt and 13pt only, but should be a good start nonetheless).

Otherwise the resulting .pdf may simply look bad on different .pdf readers.
