I wrote a dos batch file that will change the size of my DOS command
window using the mode command and now I would like to change the font
size of the text that I am outputting to the command window.

How do I do this?

Thank you in advance.

Use a scriptable registry editor (several in the resource kit) and create a
subkey under

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Console

which contains your desired configuration. Lets call that configuration
"LucindaCon7". Then use the START command with the window title of that
subkey to reenter your script:

START "LucindaCon7" %~f0 %*

You'll have to set and test for a flag to prevent continuous reentry.

If you need more details look for a message from me to this group sometime
between one fourth to three fourths of a year ago. A search string of
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Console" might do it.
