Question : Need fonts for DOS box appropriate at 1024x768

I need to install a font for the DOS box that is appropriate for 1024x768 resolution.  The font needs to be about 12x24, 12x25, or perhaps 12x26 to make it the proper size for a DOS window at 1024x768.    Secondly, it should look good.  That means either a bitmapped font or perhaps a bold True Type font.  (The standard TT fonts are unacceptable.)  Finally, I need to know how to install it so the DOS window can use it.  I have added the 10x20 bitmapped to the DOS box by setting something in system.ini to 8514oem.fon, but I need a better solution.

McCranie: Microsoft makes available font packages on their free software download site in the Office 95/97 area. Also, Adobe makes available numerous font packages that can be purchased directly from them for next to nothing, and they are referred to as their Adobe Type Manager. The last one I bought was about $19 for 50 fonts. If you need more, let me know. I have a few dos boxes on my system and the highest I was able to go was 13x22 as that was all I had.
