I did not try this, but does this look good?

"Changing the DPI settings for KDE can be a little daunting, but this
  will show you how to do it.
  First, as root, you need to open the /opt/kde/share/config/kdm/kdmrc
  file and add ServerArgsLocal=-dpi 96 to the [X-:*-Core] section (Or
  what ever DPI you want).
  Then, you simply exit out and restart X (CTRL+ALT+BACKSPACE).
  Note, this only applies if you are using KDM. If you are not using KDE,
  then the file you want to edit is /usr/X11/bin/startx. You will see a
  line for defaultserverargs. Add "-dpi 96" (or what ever dpi you want)
  and restart X."
