<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div># Look for a directory called &lt;code&gt;consolefonts&lt;/code&gt;. On Ubuntu it is located at &lt;code&gt;/usr/share/consolefonts&lt;/code&gt;. Other systems might have it at &lt;code&gt;/lib/kdb/consolefonts&lt;/code&gt;. Go to the directory:<br /> #:&lt;pre&gt;cd /usr/share/consolefonts&lt;/pre&gt;<br /> # Choose one of the font files (the file names usually specify the size) and apply it by running:<br /> #: &lt;pre&gt;setfont FileName&lt;/pre&gt;<br /> # Usually, any &quot;Latin&quot; font will be appropriate for English. Choose a font that you like, and add the command to your &lt;code&gt;rc.local&lt;/code&gt; file. It should look similar to this:<br /> #: &lt;syntaxhighlight lang=&quot;shell&quot;&gt;<br /> #!/bin/sh -e<br /> #<br /> # rc.local<br /> #<br /> # This script is executed at the end of each multiuser runlevel.<br /> # Make sure that the script will &quot;exit 0&quot; on success or any other<br /> # value on error.<br /> #<br /> # In order to enable or disable this script just change the execution<br /> # bits.<br /> #<br /> # By default this script does nothing.<br /> <br /> setfont /usr/share/consolefonts/Lat15-TerminusBold22x11.psf.gz<br /> exit 0<br /> <br /> &lt;/syntaxhighlight&gt;</div>
