A pixel-perfect recreation (including some new glyphs) of the PDP-11 terminal font, including Cyrillic characters as seen on the Elektronika 60, famously the machine Alexey Pajitnov programmed the first Tetris prototype on.
* The only exception is the … (ellipsis) glyph, that’s one pixel wider than the rest of the glyphs. However, since all glyphs have a margin of three pixels to left anyway, this won’t cause problems with the font being mono-spaced.
The font’s aspect ratio is 1:1 and should be used at the original mainframe terminal’s resolution (800×275). However, the screen gets stretched vertically by 200%. So for the font to appear as on the terminal, you either need to work at 1:1 pixel aspect ratio and then stretch the image by 200% vertically, or stretch the font 200% verically.
