  Still doesn't exactly say what it is? I get that it's glyphs for printable characters, but honestly it could be a PDF, video, collection of PNGs or SVG files, an Adobe Illustrator file, a linux distribution, a web browser, or pretty much any other piece of software or data format. I presume it's a TTF or OTF font file?

    It's a bitmap font: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_font#BITMAP https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_font#BITMAP

  no. as others have stated too, the following should be mentioned - what's the 2 meaning in BMP - it's designed as a monospaced (or proportional?) bitmap font - designed in a single 16x16 size only (or also 8x16? it's a bit unclear) - provided as an OTF/TTF font format, which can be scaled by most font rendering engines to other sizes, but u need antialiasing to make it look smooth (this is mentioned, but under the download section only) - use as a "last resort" default font, according to wikipedia at least
