This is saying, reduce the fontsize by 0, so I would expect it to be
unchanged. If you look at what Kieran said, you should have said:
\mark \markup{ \italic \fontsize #0 {"D.S. al Fine"}}
(note the absence of the "-" before the 0).

Yes, this is saying to reduce the fontsize by 2, which is what you want.
