If any font maker read this. I would like to have a "bitmap" monospace font as a true type font in the same size as Consolas 15px.
With "bitmap" I mean high contrast super crisp, pixel perfect, that don't lose contrast without sub-pixel-antailias.
- a_e_k 10y agoCrispness was one of my primary motivations for learning to make my own programming font, Luculent [1][2]. Consolas is wider so the proportions aren't quite the same. But mine is superhinted to look good with no or limited antialiasing at 15 ppem, among other sizes.

- ComodoHacker 10y agoGood work, thank you! To my taste, it's a bit too dense for regular coding. Very nice for diffing/merging and for console.
- a-nikolaev 10y agoThis is a very nice typeface indeed! And uniquely beautiful.
- z3t4 10y agoIt looks good on many sizes with anti-alias turned off. But with anti-alias it's very thin and the contrast is bad.
