Because the terminal output is character-based rather than pixel-based, this is not possible. The only way to get larger characters is to draw them using lines and points (“ASCII art”) on multiple lines/columns.

  • So to clarify, you cannot display multiple console fonts on a screen? E.g. I can't have default8x9 for one line and Lat15-VGA16 for another?
