You might try to enable editing on your text layer, select all and then go to A? (text 
style) and change to the size you want.  If you have too many this is not going to 
work. Once I did something like to convert the txt object to point and used a clone of 
the original table as attribute. This way I could control the size of the text objects 
now as "point" entities. In fact this occurs if you take the txt obj TAB and export 
via FME to Shape (AV). Automatically, the txt objects will be transformed into point 
and the actual text will be their attributes.

I hope this helps.

Is there a way to determine the size of a particular Text object
programatically?

I have a layer which contain Text object of various sizes on one layer. It
is too much information, makes the resultant print out cluttered. However
separate the various size groups into its own layer would be of use when we
print in various scales.
