Open a file in your root folder named .Xdefaults


Add the following code in the file.

XTerm*HiForeColor: white
XTerm*HiBackColor: #c06077
XTerm*geometry: 150x40+10+10
XTerm*font:             -*-courier 10 pitch-medium-r-*-*-14-*-*-*-*-*-iso8859-*


To select the code for any required font, run the command 
xfontsel -print

This opens a GUI where you can select the required font, whose code would be displayed while it is selected and at the time when you exit the application. 

Add this code in the .Xdefaults file.
