PuTTY Standard command line parameters does not mention any options for specifying a window size or a font size.
However, you can specify a profile to load, and that can be used to accomplish what you're seeking.
A profile is basically a collection of settings, including window properties, remote server name, authentication keys, and more. Some of those settings, like the server name, can be left blank if desired.
Make a profile using the GUI. To change the window size, go to the screen of Window options. (That is above the "Appearance" screen. The word "Window" is a category that is above other screens in the hierarchy. But, it is also a screen of options.) Then, after specifying the size you want, go to the "Session" screen and type in a session name, and click "Save". That creates the profile.
Then, use:
PuTTY -load "sessionName"
Customize the part after the -load and between the quotes. Specify the full path to PuTTY as required.
Some more official documentation for you: PuTTY: Specifying a session to start with.

putty -load "Profile Name"
