“Mallard Smooth” by gid

Based on the output from the Mullard SAA5050 teletext character generator as used in the venerable BBC Microcomputer's "MODE 7". Smoothed out by hand: not as authentic as Mallard Blocky, but maybe a little more usable

Based on the output from the Mullard SAA5050 teletext character generator as used in the venerable BBC Microcomputer's "MODE 7". I've tried to keep this version fairly true to the original. "Blockier" uses the definitions from the data sheet with each pixel doubled up. "Blocky" uses the definitions from the data sheet along with the extra pixels the chip adds in. "Smooth" and "Smoother" use non-square bricks to make the shape less pixellated while still keeping the overall shape. "Tiny" is the same as "Blockier", but with one data sheet pixel to one font part, giving a smaller pixel font.

“Sixer” by pdc

Prompted by nostalgia for the 6x6-pixel font I created for the BBC Micro when I was small -- although I have ignored the 8x8 matrix size in some characters. Still in need of some work.

Based on the output from the Mullard SAA5050 teletext character generator as used in the venerable BBC Microcomputer's "MODE 7". Taken from the original SAA5050 data sheets. A smaller version of "Blockier": just the raw data sheet pixels.
