As far as an Xterm is concerned you could create (if it does not already
exist) $HOME/.Xresources and put in it a line like

XTerm*font: 10x20

Either restart X or do 'xrdb -merge .Xresources' to have this take
effect.  I think the fonts available to use may be found in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc if you prefer something other than 10x20.
Also do a search on Google as you are likely to find a fair bit of
information on this topic there.
