Is this for VGA? This code might work:
    http://www.execpc.com/~geezer/temp/setfont.zip

To compile it, you need NASM. You also need Turbo C or
DJGPP. To restore the original DOS font, type
	MODE CO80

More code: this will load BDF bitmap fonts and display them
in VGA mode 12h (640x480x16) or 13h (320x200x256):
    http://www.execpc.com/~geezer/software/bdf.zip

Just after main() in BDF.C is a preprocessor #if statement
that selects the video mode.
