I suppose you are taking about font sizes. You can change it by the 
following ways

1 for the current graphic window:
    ax=gca();
    ax.font_size=7;

    or
     ax.fractional_font="on";
     ax.font_size=6;//here font_size given in pt

2 for all subsequent graphic windows: (change of the parameter value in 
the ressource used to initiate the axes)
    da=gda();
    da.fractional_font="on";
    da.font_size=6;//here font_size given in pt


In the same manner you can also change colors , font_styles, .....
