In gedit, one help page for font is at
/usr/share/help/en_GB/gedit/gedit-change-default-font.page
In there, it give instruction about how to use gedit itself to select a
new font.
<title>Change the default font</title>

<p><app>gedit</app> will use the system fixed-width font by default,
  but you can change the default <app>gedit</app> font to suit your
  preferences.</p>

<steps>
    <title>To change the default font in <app>gedit</app>:</title>

<item><p>Press the menu button in the top-right corner of the
      window and select <guiseq><gui
      style="menuitem">Preferences</gui><gui>Font &amp; Colours</gui></guiseq>.</p></item>
      <item><p>Uncheck the box next to the phrase, "Use the system
      fixed width
      font."</p></item>
      <item><p>Click on the current font name. <app>gedit</app> will
      open a font-chooser window, allowing you to see available fonts
      and choose the one that you prefer.</p></item>
      <item><p>After you have chosen a new font, use the
      <gui>slider</gui> under the list of fonts to set the default font
      size.</p></item>
      <item><p>Click <gui>Select</gui>, and then close the dialog.</p>

It will be prettier if you view it in a browser.

In gvim, the font is selected in .gvimrc, the configuration file.
Something like
set gfn=Terminus\ Bold\ 14

So, find the font name in gedit, and add it to the .gvimrc file.

You can find the files contained in a package, say gedit, by 
rpm -q --filesbypkg gedit
