Indentifying font

03 January 2007, 16:06

hi all

i'd like some help in identifying a font used in an amiga application.

the app is one that i wrote waaaay back in 1990 or so, and i no longer have either an amiga or the software

however i recently found a paper copy of a screenshot of the app, that i have subsequently scanned and am attempting to "redraw" for posterity purposes, as best as i can.

i've attached a sample of the some of the characters from the scan - note in particular the curved shape of the C, E and F characters.

if anyone can help i'd be very grateful.

thanks
roland

Like Uno used to say, (roughly): "too little variation in 8x8 fonts". (When I asked him to make one

)

Something tells me 'disk mag/chart' and 'Razor 1911.' I've no idea why, did they ever make one? The unconscious is a funny thing, and a good substitute for "can't remember" :P
