I have a windows program that "must" use a dos fixed font such as OEM_FIXED_FONT to be able to display the graphics characters. The OEM_FIXED_FONT is very small.

If you use AllocConsole(), a set of larger alternate font sizes are available to the running console.

Is there any way that a windows program can actually use these larger alternate fonts?

For example, I would like to say something similar to:

SelectObject(hdc, GetStockObject(10x12_FIXED_FONT));
