sometimes99er Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 (edited) A collection of fonts. Currently 288 fonts. Most are 8x8 pixels, some fit 6x8 and a few are 8x16. fonts.txt contains an overview. fonts.zip contains the fonts. Each font is a graphic file (gif) arranged as 64x256 pixels. You can import these files into the Magellan editor. Pineapple is a font viewer and tester. I'll make a new online version soon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intellectual_property_protection_of_typefaces http://atariage.com/forums/topic/194190-bitmap-fonts-not-copyrightable If you have requests, questions or additional info please post in this thread. The first font is probably the most famous of all. As far as I can see, it goes back to early Namco arcades. Personally I would expand the "E" to align more with most of the characters.

+retroclouds Posted July 10, 2010 Share Posted July 10, 2010 thanks for the update Would CAPCOM fonts work well, e.g. the font used in VULGUS ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vulgus has been added. It sure would be nice in a game, but doesn't have a lot of characters defined. I try and match only TI ASCII characters and leave out game characters and other special stuff.

Yep, PETSCII's now available, both shifted and unshifted (the latter with lowercase). Layout is not ASCII !

rocky007 Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 (edited) just little question : why don't you save without anti-aliasing ? Edited July 18, 2010 by rocky007 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sometimes99er Posted July 18, 2010 Author Share Posted July 18, 2010 just little question : why don't you save without anti-aliasing ? I thought I did. Some software resizes and use some sort of anti-aliasing just browsing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sometimes99er Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 (edited) Now this is a funny one. Most of the characters are the usual 8x8 pixels and arranged as ASCII. There is however a few needing an additional 8x8 pixels. Characters like G and J need to be 8x16 and others like M and W need to be 16x8. It actually looks pretty cool when you put it all together.
