man X(7x), look in section RESOURCES, man xrdb, write your Xresources/Xdefaults file.
Shift-MouseButton1 -> Fonts
you can also set fonts within ,emacs using elisp.

How do I increase the font size of the text n Emacs.
This is a straight rip-off from "info emacs" under the "Font X" section:
\begin{quotation} Here is an example, which happens to specify the font whose nickname is `6x13': emacs -fn "-misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-*-*-*-c-60-iso8859-1" &
You can also specify the font in your `.Xdefaults' file: emacs.font: -misc-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed--13-*-*-*-c-60-iso8859-1
A long font name has the following form: -MAKER-FAMILY-WEIGHT-SLANT-WIDTHTYPE-STYLE... ...-PIXELS-HEIGHT-HORIZ-VERT-SPACING-WIDTH-CHARSET \end{quotation}
For more details look at the "info emacs" and search for "Font X".
Hope this helps. Regards, - JJH
