[CentOS] tcl font size issue on centso 4.4 x86_64

I have a simply script that I cannot get a font size bigger than 40. 
Changing the font_size value to 80 does not make
the font any bigger just the background.

How do I get a bigger font than 40?

I run this script as "wish -f file.tcl"

What am I doing wrong to not get bigger fonts?

THanks,

Jerry
