Quite simply open a terminal, select edit->preferences->click on
apperance->click on the button that indicates font/size and a dialog
will pop-up. You can change the font and size here. I suggest staying
with Monospace or any font that is 'mono' as variable width font
characters can override each other in a terminal. A lot of people like
inconsolata (apt-get install ttf-inconsolata) personally I don't see the
difference.


In addition, if you (the OP) are using Gnomes terminal it's Edit->Current
Profile and then untick the use the system font option and that will make it
possible to click the font button and change your font. Don't forget to
save.

And, if you're actually using xterm hold control then right click the
terminal window and you can cange it that way.
