Set Font Size on TTY

1. Look for a directory called consolefonts. On Ubuntu it is located at /usr/share/consolefonts. Other systems might have it at /lib/kdb/consolefonts. Go to the directory:

   cd /usr/share/consolefonts

2. Choose one of the font files (the file names usually specify the size) and apply it by running:

   setfont FileName

3. Usually, any "Latin" font will be appropriate for English. Choose a font that you like, and add the command to your rc.local file. It should look similar to this:

   #!/bin/sh -e
   #
   # rc.local
   #
   # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.
   # Make sure that the script will "exit 0" on success or any other
   # value on error.
   #
   # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution
   # bits.
   #
   # By default this script does nothing.
   
   setfont /usr/share/consolefonts/Lat15-TerminusBold22x11.psf.gz
   exit 0
