Emacs on a TTY doesn't use any fonts.

If you mean the colors are the problem, then I don't understand how
could that be.  Are you saying that sending a command to the terminal
to switch on or off some color causes the cursor to move?  That can
happen only if the terminal driver is buggy, or if the value of TERM
lies to Emacs wrt the real features of the terminal (i.e. some problem
in the termcap/terminfo database).
