According to the requirements in your comment Adjust components basing on devices, first of all add to your project the following Java class. It contains more than you need, you can customize it as you wish. The most important thing is the line: int defaultScreenWidth = Display.getInstance().convertToPixels(70);. It is self-explanatory: it indicates the reference dimension, in this case 70mm.

Then, in your main class, comment the theme = UIManager.initFirstTheme("/theme"); line, replace it with:
// theme = UIManager.initFirstTheme("/theme");
// We assume that CSS support is enabled
CSSUtilities.loadMultipleCSSes("theme");
That's all. This is an example of usage:
Form hi = new Form("Hi World", BoxLayout.y());
hi.add(new Label("(Recognized) screen width: " + (hi.getWidth() / CN.convertToPixels(1)) + " mm"));
hi.add(new SpanLabel("This text enters a line on a 70mm screen. Do tests."));
hi.add(FontImage.createMaterial(FontImage.MATERIAL_LOCAL_RESTAURANT, "Label", CSSUtilities.getResized(10.0f)));
hi.show();
Note that the recognized width is NOT the actual width, that can be different: however, my code ensures that even in cases where Codename One cannot detect the width correctly, the text adapts as you requested.
A few considerations:
this code has limits, it requires that the orientation is locked vertically, it is only suitable for smartphone screens (no tablet);
remember that the native fonts of Android and iOS are different;
this code automatically resizes the dimensions that you have specified in your css, regarding text, margin and padding (use mm or pt, 1pt is about 0.35mm);
for everything else the resizing is not automatic, in the example code I showed you how to automatically adapt an image;
the code is limited to reduce the text up to a maximum of 30%, in my tests this is fine, provided that the default size is 70mm;
the code never increases the size of the text: again, I decided this behavior based on my tests, you can do as you like.
even more precisely, this code helps me especially on devices that don't report their screen density correctly and therefore "fool" Codename One.
I hope this is useful to you. It is much more useful on real devices than in the simulator.
