Hi,

I use dosBox with Ubuntu.

In window mode, the défault font size is too small for me, because my screen resolution is 1440x900.
When I setup dosbox.conf : fullscreen=true, it works, but the display is fuzzy.
Is it possible to setup a window mode, but with a different font size or windows size?

I have try to setup "windowresolution" to another value than "original" (i.e. 800x600) but it seems not working.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks, windowresolution works fine when I setup output=opengl instead of output=surface

But, now, with a largest window, the display is fuzzy.

I suppose the cause is dosBox use a bitmap font ?...

How to set up a different font (i.e. courrier new, vectorial) instead of the default dosBox Font?

Thanks.

DOSBox outputs pixels, not characters like a "normal" terminal window. You could change fonts inside the emulation, though i'm not sure how this works. Tools like WBAT for example seem to use some kind of custom font.
