It was easy to reproduce this bug with following configuration: Windows 2000, 1280x1024x32, FFJ build 020301 just installed. run IDE and open any non empty file ( I've used sampledir->clock->README), open editor's properties (Tools->Options->Editing->Editor Settings->Plain Editor). Set 'Font Size' to 200. Exception will be thrown. I've reproduced this bug on Solaris 8 also but it has took much more time and attempts.

4.0 dev != FFJ 4.0 ea please mark correct version next time! It seems like this is JDK issue. The same exception arise if you create JFrame, add JTextArea and set font for 200. Please file issue on JDK/swing. Thanks for report.
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> verified
