I played a bit with trying to make dosemu use the installed fonts (including 
hand-edition of the fonts description files) with varied effect none 
actually working. I'll have to try more, till that I went for switching 
resolution from commandline which gives good results as far as font 
readability goes.

yes I did, and it does work in xdosemu. however in dosemu run from text 
console, the maximum I could get is 37 lines :(

The other way about xdosemu would be to change the window size without 
changing font size in 80x50.
