Basic Font Information
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Press Start 2P is a bitmap font based on the font design from 1980s Namco
|
|
|
|
|
|
arcade games. It works best at sizes of 8px, 16px and other multiples
|
|
|
|
|
|
of 8. Although the design of uppercase letters and digits dates
|
|
|
|
|
|
back to Atari's "Sprint" (1977), the specific glyph forms in this TrueType
|
|
|
|
|
|
conversion are based on those from "Return of Ishtar" (1986), one of the
|
|
|
|
|
|
first games to include and regularly use lowercase as well as uppercase
|
|
|
|
|
|
letters in its screen font.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unlike the original font from the "Return of Ishtar" ROM, Press Start 2P
|
|
|
|
|
|
includes a wide variety of non-ASCII Unicode characters for pan-European
|
|
|
|
|
|
use, including Greek and Cyrillic. It could be expanded to support
|
|
|
|
|
|
other scripts.
