Not going to happen.


Depending on who authored the PDF w/privileges, the software used and the OS it was created on, may hinder your efforts.


You can try a real PDF editor—but no guarantee there either. YOu may well be able to copy the whole of the text and create your own file with your desired text size—then export or print to— PDF dialog.
