WELCOME
This is what I do to my Manjaro XFCE just installed, in case something can serve others to configure yours to your liking, and / or copy part, I leave here the procedures,
Original in Spanish, translated with the Google translator help, and curated, after it, so please forgive me some "lost in translation" issues that you would be able to find here.

1a.- 168 dpi or 175% scaling
Menu - Settings - Appearance - Font types - Customized DPI settings
1b.- Panel 48
