Android has built in facilities for this- dp and sp. dp is device pixels. It basically is 1dp=1/160th of an inch. This allows you to specify the height of the font in real world size. Sp is scaled pixels. This size scales based on the default font size, so a user can scale up his system font and your app will match it. Handy for people with sight problems who need big text, while not taking up screen real estate for others.

You should probably be using one or the other of these.
