Font Collection

Here is a font collection I have put together. Attributions in the file.
5x7 in 6x8 - 96 chars
7x7 in 8x8 - 96 chars & 128 chars
8x12 - 128 chars
Please post any others you've found to this thread.

I made this one a while ago - it's 8x8 and has all the same 256 characters as the P1 ROM font: https://forums.parallax.com/discussion/167894/a-rom-font-compatibile-8x8-font
Also, there's the Spin Hexagon font, which is based on the vector font used in Super Hexagon. It has very few characters, basically just uppercase+numbers+some punctuation. It's 8x8 but without inbuilt spacing, so the characters have to be rendered 1 pixel apart.
As Spin source: https://github.com/IRQsome/Spin-Hexagon/blob/master/hexfont.spin

Also, there's this website that has 301(!) free 8x8 fonts: https://damieng.com/typography/zx-origins/
Thank you @Cluso99 and @Wuerfel_21. As far as I'm concerned the more fonts available the better.
Here's the ROM font with leading zeros removed. I also include two bytes at the start of each character to indicate how wide the character is. The second start byte is the height of the character but I think I added this just to make the bytes per character an even number.
I removed the leading zeros to make it easier to use in proportionally spaced fonts.
Parallax sold a RGB 8x8 LED display controlled by a Propeller chip. The code used by the display included an 8x16 font. I'm pretty sure I have the same font in easier to read binary. I'll be happy to try to find the binary version if anyone wants me to.
(I hope code blocks have scroll bars now.)

I'll add them as I find them.
Edit: I fixed the code formatting but I don't know why some of the code has color.
Attached are a few more fonts. The 8x16 font used in the SimplyTronics LED array is included.
The Free Design font (included in the attached file) was found on the internet when I searched for interesting dot matrix type fonts. Here's how the font looks scrolling on some RGB arrays.
The file also includes a couple of logos. One is called "parallaxLogo" and I think this was included in the SimplyTronics firmware. I think SimplyTronics is also the source for the "propBeanie" bitmap.
Here's the "propBeanie" bitmap displayed on some LED arrays.
The one of the fonts ("font5x7") is rotated 90 degrees. This rotation makes the font easier to scroll in some arrays.
Apparently the ROM font can be scaled down to produce usable fonts in a couple different sizes. Here's an interesting thread on the topic.
