A 17" TFT has usually a resolution of 1280x1024. To get 70 lines, you
need a 7pt font, not really readable. On the other side, than the
source have only 25% of the screen wide. You should use a rotatable
screen, then you can use a readable font and use more than 25% of the
screen.

Maybe using lower case only make the text easier to read, but not the
contents.
