You may use resize event handler. The trick is how to calculate new font size. Check this solution as a variant:

Html:

    
Resizable
    
Quis non magna sagittis, et cras tortor nunc? Enim, lectus et quis penatibus enim augue eros, dis sit sit urna cras placerat sociis porta

Javascript:

var initDiagonal;
var initFontSize;

$(function() {
    $("#resizable").resizable({
        alsoResize: '#content',
        create: function(event, ui) {
            initDiagonal = getContentDiagonal();
            initFontSize = parseInt($("#content").css("font-size"));
        },
        resize: function(e, ui) {
            var newDiagonal = getContentDiagonal();
            var ratio = newDiagonal / initDiagonal;

            $("#content").css("font-size", initFontSize + ratio * 3);
        }
    });
});

function getContentDiagonal() {
    var contentWidth = $("#content").width();
    var contentHeight = $("#content").height();
    return contentWidth * contentWidth + contentHeight * contentHeight;
}
