If you look at the code for categories.tpl, you will see that the class is categorieslist for the text, but the link class is vertmenuitems. If you look at pages_menu.tpl, you'll see that there is only a link class, vertmenuitems. If you want them to match, you'll need to add the <font class="categorieslist"> bit to the pages menu links as well.
