Usage

The UPM of this typeface is 1200, so the font should be scaled an integer multiple of a size of 12px for the best result.

For better display result, the OpenType kern for this typeface does not take an integer multiple of the cell size (default is 100). This may cause the font wrong render results under some circumstances. Please turn off any anti-aliasing settings or filtering modes, and set the kerning and tracking to 0 when it's  possible.


Future Plans

In the future, bold, italic, and bold-italic styles will be added, as well as support for the CJK character sets.


Acknowledgements

Special thanks to Roy, Heinrich and 摇曳 for their assistance with the rendering effect of this typeface, especially Roy for his help with technical support. Also, thanks to HanshuYuri for his valuable advice, his pixel fonts are also excellent. Without their support, this typeface might not have achieved its current effect.

Thanks to my family for supporting my hobby. Their open-minded attitude was the foundation of my path.

Thanks to my fans on the Bilibili for their acceptance, as well as the technology and experience shared by the people of the QQ group chat "像素字体工房".
