Pixel Arcade Bold

The lowercase is as tall as the capitals: its x-height measures 100% of the cap height, level with the tallest of the 12 pixel fonts. Ascenders on b, d, h, k and l line up with the capitals (100% of their height), and g, j, p, q and y barely drop below the baseline. Pixel Arcade Bold runs 11.9% wider than the median for pixel fonts: an average lowercase letter, spacing included, is 92.1% as wide as the capitals are tall (an average capital, 92.1%). The o is an upright oval, 0.71 times as wide as it is tall, and every capital has the same width. O stands exactly as tall as H and sits on the baseline, with no overshoot.

The letters stand upright, with no measurable slant. Vertical stems measure 12.7% of the cap height, lighter than 3 of the 5 other pixel fonts. Ink covers 26.4% of each lowercase letter's box (its advance width by the cap height), lighter than 6 of the 11 other pixel fonts. Strokes keep one thickness in every direction: the sides of o and O measure the same as their tops and bottoms.

Its 159 characters include 116 Latin letters, plus 43 figures, punctuation marks and symbols; 64 of the Latin letters are accented or special forms beyond A to Z. The word space measures 47.9% of the cap height, and the blank space either side of a lowercase letter takes up 23% of its width. The font carries no kerning, so spacing comes from each letter’s own side bearings. All ten figures share one width, so columns of numbers line up.
