[comp.fonts] Looking for OCR-A bit-mapped font

wales@valeria.cs.ucla.edu (Rich Wales) (06/23/88)

I am looking for an "OCR-A" bit-mapped font.  (OCR-A is a funny-looking
machine-readable type face, vaguely similar to the magnetic-ink printing
on checks.)

Does anyone out there know where I can find an OCR-A font at a reason-
able cost (preferably as inexpensive as possible)?

If possible, I would like a bit-mapped version which I could port to a
24-pin-head dot-matrix printer with downloading capability.

More generally, is there any BBS (including an Internet site accessible
via anonymous FTP) with a good collection of PD and/or shareware fonts?
