console fonts

They're all in /usr/share/syscons/fonts/ and they're all 8x8, 8x14 or 8x16.
 
Try them, I have no idea what your monitor is like or how good your eyes are.

Also keep in mind that most are for foreign language support.
 
I have 26" iiyama monitor.
I wanted the smallest possible and a good seeing font.
Like monospace for example. Ok. I will try them all :)
 
Swiss is nice, but to get small glyphs you'll have to use a small mode (134x43, x50, x60 or one of the VESA modes).
There's some fairly new stuff for amd64, but i386 probably still works best. Higher modes will have significant slowness in terminal response.
[cmd=""]vidcontrol -i mode[/cmd] to list, & more at vidcontrol(1).
