Matrix Sans

Matrix Sans is a set of pixelated, retro-style fonts based on the classic 5×7 dot matrix capitals. The design captures the look of this ubiquitous format, incorporating the best features from historical examples. There are four variants in this family: Regular is like most "pixel" fonts that use connected, square dots, like the displays of 8-bit home computers and video game consoles from the 1980s. Print is made up of separate circular dots, resembling the output of a dot-matrix printer or the expiry dates on food products. It also mimics the electronic signs found on motorways, at airports and train stations, etc. Screen is similar to Print, but uses square dots instead. It matches the look of the "character LCDs" seen in many devices, as well as some light-up LED displays. Video is an interpolated version of Regular. It resembles the on-screen displays of VCRs, Teletext, camcorders and the like; harking back to the early days of computerization in television and home video.
