Greetings,
Can anybody tell me why, when I make the GEM window size bigger, the text rendered from the [text3d] object also gets bigger? It's a thorn in my side, since I have to change all the dimensions of my system when changing the gemwin size from say 1300x600 to 1300x800.

Everything ought to get bigger in such circumstances, as the size of a GL unit remains the same. Supposing a default camera/viewport, for an XY object at depth Z=0, the image rows go from +4 GL units to -4 GL units, and the image columns go from -4*aspect GL units to +4*aspect GL units.
aspect is the image width divided by the image height.
If you just want to make a bigger sheet, you need to increase the number of vertical units from 8 to something proportionally bigger (new window size divided by old window size, times 8).
