movies and subtitles are built on mplayer, which is a unix gpl media viewer. they took the source, compiled it (or use the regular dll version for windows), and operate it from the xbmc gui.
so what you need to do is go to the mplayer homepage at www.mplayerhq.hu and look for tools for creating your own font. then you install them in the mplayer/font directory, and
select the one you want in xbmc settings|screen|subtitles.

once you have the fonts, post them in sourcefourge where they put the patches.

however, they added a feature to resize the subtitles in the build from 2004-5-21.
