So now the teletext characters are available, and this site would be a perfect place to use them. I'm not sure about font support yet though.
- codetrotter 5y agoThey are using the font “MODE7GX3.TTF” from https://galax.xyz/TELETEXT/index.html https://galax.xyz/TELETEXT/index.html Your comment made me wonder if maybe the HN in Teletext style page uses the Unicode code points you mentioned. Looking at the GitHub source https://github.com/glynnbird/teletext/blob/master/index.html https://github.com/glynnbird/teletext/blob/master/index.html for the HN in Teletext style page however we see that this page and the font make use of Unicode code points in the Basic Multilingual Plane Private Use Area U+E000..U+F8FF, rather than using Symbols for Legacy Computing U+1FB00..U+1FBFF. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Use_Areas https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_Use_Areas
