    Thanks for posting my web page to this site. I just signed up to post here now and in the future. I posted the companion page to the WarGames Terminal Fonts:

      Wargames was a touchstone in my youth. Glad to share the work.

    Is it me, or is the aspect ratio not quite right? The letters seem wider than they did onscreen.

      Hello classichasclass,

      As the author of that web page I can point you to this text from the page:

      "In the following section you will see all of the text in these images transcribed in the WarGames Terminal N W.woff (Normal) font used for this web page's text. This font is slightly ## vertically compressed ## compared to the font in the images. WarGames Terminal D W.woff (Double) looks closer, but I will not use it here now due to the issue with .WOFF font creation in FontForge that I described earlier."

      Note where I put "##"s around "## vertically compressed ##" in the text above.

      When I get the .WOFF file situation sorted out, I may change the font for the page from the Normal version to the Double version so that it looks closer to the images of on-screen text. You can see the Double and Raster fonts in the "Font samples" section of the page to get an idea of what they will look like.

      Cheers, - Michael Walden
