I frequently use C-5-2 to get a new window without creating a new emacs process. In emacs lingo, each window is called a frame. At some point, I was surprised to find that the new window had a font different than my default font. After some searching, I learned that emacs has a completely separate font specification for new frames. See the GNU Emacs Manual page on Creating Frames. At the bottom of that manual page is where you'll find the recipe:
(add-to-list 'default-frame-alist '(font . "6x13"))I've used my favorite font name ("6x13") in this example, but that may be too small for many people. Many fonts are available. Try "10x20" for a larger size. Also see the GNU Emacs Manual page on Fonts
