There's a thread about pixel fonts, so why not? If anybody knows a better place to put this then feel free to move the thread.

Here's my font pack for all your free font needs, without any of the ugly legalese that usually comes with most free fonts ( ・・) Feel free to use for anything you want. These are TTF fonts. I'll be adding and updating fonts over time, so make sure to check every so often. Charset support varies but I guarantee everything supports at least the U+0000 to U+00FF range (ASCII + Latin-1 extended).

Here's the download link:

Enjoy!

Thanks (・ワ・)

Added a new font: Pinlight



Looks like a pinball HUD (or attempts to). Note that because it's all horizontal "scanlines" it's probably only going to look nice at large sizes (if possible try to get 33px for line height i.e. 3px for each "scanline", or some multiple of that). Not exactly the most useful font out there in hindsight, but it was easy...

I need to stop being lazy and make a gothic font. But I haven't figured out how to get reasonable proportions for the strokes yet.

EDIT: and also I really should take a look at the underscore values for each font, I'm going to guess that for most of them they're actually pretty awful =/ (assuming the program pays attention to them instead of just drawing a stroke where it feels like it, that is)

Updated Roman Teal with Latin Extended A (U+0100 to U+017F)



So much for frequent updates...

Also wondering if I shouldn't really push the minimum goal to WGL4, but then it'll definitely take ages to get any new fonts going (and heck, I'll need to update all the current ones accordingly too), though admittedly no idea if the idea is to have them on all fonts or just all on a single system... I mean, box drawing is useless when the font isn't monospace.

So good! Thanks for sharing it! Coffee

It probably not looks like best usage, but I spent a lot of time searching for "that only font that fits", until seen that thread http://puu.sh/rt1SA/67e4e23bf7.png
