ModeSeven is based on the bitmap font in Teletext televisions, 1980s-vintage Videotext terminals (such as the Prestel system used in the UK), and the BBC Micro computer. (The name derives from the BBC Micro screen mode which used the teletext character generator.)
This font looks "natural" at a size of 20 pixels, or any multiple thereof. However, it has been hinted as to scale as well as an ex-bitmap font can be expected to.
This font was created by hand with Fontographer 4.1.2 on a Macintosh. The character definitions were worked out from a bitmap version of the Teletext font created by James Fidell, and included in xbeeb (a BBC Micro emulator for UNIX/X11). The spacing of the original has been preserved, which is why many character shapes are aligned to the right of their cells.
