“Artistic Binary” by lordnincompoop

Thu, 04 Dec 2008 17:59:59 -0800

This font is based on a 2 column, 3 row binary group. The circle means 0, the square means 1. The top left is least significat, bottom right is most significant. All the previous circles must be squares before the next one becomes a square. When that next one becomes a square, all previous ones go back to being a circle.

The Braille system was developed by Louis Braille in 1821. Mew Wins' Morse Code Alphabet (International) inspired me to make a Braille FontStruction. I have only drawn the basic, or Grade 1, version of the Braille alphabet here. (There is a contracted version of Braille, known as Grade 2, and another version which uses an 8 dot grid. In addition, there are special Braille characters for accented letters, but they are not all standardized, so for now I have stayed away from them.) Special characters: There are no capital letters in Braille. Instead, there is a symbol for "capital letter follows," which I have placed in the "at" (@) symbol. The "number follows" symbol is usually placed in the space for the "number" symbol (#), so I've followed that convention. In addition, I have copied the symbol for each letter into both the upper and lower case spaces, to make it easier to type something up (or select an existing text file) and switch the font to Braille (Basic).

“Braille (Basic) Alternate” by SquarePeg

Clone of Braille (Basic). I swapped the hollow circles for small dots. Special characters: There are no capital letters in Braille. Instead, there is a symbol for "capital letter follows," which I have placed in the "at" (@) symbol. The "number follows" symbol is usually placed in the space for the "number" symbol (#), so I've followed that convention. In addition, I have copied the symbol for each letter into both the upper and lower case spaces, to make it easier to type something up (or select an existing text file) and switch the font to Braille (Basic) Alternate.

Simple font showing each character as a collection of eight dots that can be on or off, separated by a vertical bar to reduce ambiguity. Scales down to a 6x8 block. The numbers are based on the ASCII character set.

Pure binary font; 1s and 0s all. For use for a test motion graphic I'm working on.

An alphabet based on a byte. Two columns, bottom right is the least significant bit, top left is the most significant bit.

“8-Bit ASCII” by Releasn Demons

8-bit ASCII arranged like peas in a pod, read top->bottom rather than left->right. I made sure each character is accurate to its unique ASCII code. I know it's not practical, but I thought it would be a neat project! I welcome suggestions for my fonts!
