    When I run your code on my system (TeXLive 2011), except for the plots part (since I don't have your .eps files), I experience no problems with setting the default document font size to either 10pt, 11pt, and 12pt. Note that 5pt is not a recognized option for the \documentclass command. Are you maybe looking to change the font size locally, say for large tables? If so, try issuing the commands \small, \footnotesize, \scriptsize, and/or \tiny immediately before the tabular environment. Commented Feb 19, 2012 at 13:05
