If you are using a VGA video card, what about using a CGA font?
You should load the CGA font from the Windows disks.  I did so long ago,
but just did not keep the details.  Perhaps, it should be an easy job!

And if you have EGA card, the CGA font will look a bit bigger.
However, the .FON (I did this with Windows 3.0) fonts are not Word
compatible (since Word was using own caracter set).
