Look at the args that your text editor uses (use man or --help, maybe).
There may be an option for --font or -fn or some such.  If there is, find a
bigly font and launch it from the command line to check it out.  When you
find a font that works for you, edit the launcher to include that option.

Alternatively, if you want the larger font _every_  time you launcher that
editor, you could try setting a font in X, however your distro likes to do
that.  (/etc/X11/app-defaults for me.)
