The \definefontfamily command doesn’t change the way how you change fonts
or use a different font size. The reason why you can’t change the font size is this line

> \definefontfamily [mainface] [serif] [TeX Gyre Pagella DejaVu Serif]

where you tries to load a not existing font. I’ll add a few error message to the code
and a fallback solution which will use Latin Modern when no font was found.
