Gordon,

Use Style on individual items, or BaseStyle for an entire plot.

Needs["PieCharts`"]

pct = 21.7;
pieLab = StringJoin[ToString[pct], "%"];

PieChart[{pct, 100 - pct},
 PieLabels -> {Style[pieLab, 14], ""},
 PieStyle -> {Directive[Darker[Blue], Opacity[0.4]],
   Directive[Gray, Opacity[0.1]]},
 ImageSize -> 200]

PieChart[{pct, 100 - pct},
 PieLabels -> {pieLab, ""},
 PieStyle -> {Directive[Darker[Blue], Opacity[0.4]],
   Directive[Gray, Opacity[0.1]]},
 BaseStyle -> {FontSize -> 14},
 ImageSize -> 200]
