I don't understand your question: do you want the size of a file or do you want
to find the point size of a font? The content of your messages suggests one,
the title of you message suggests the other.

kind regards,

In the Filefile class there is a length() method which returns long type. is this the method you used? According to the api, this method returns the length of a file in bytes and has system dependent properties especially as regards devices and or pipes. So maybe that was where you had problems with running this method in your mac. Why not read the api and see if it can help resolve your problem or you rephrase the question.
