Font used on the LINC terminal screens, inside LINC-Space, and for player-named saved games in the DOS version of Beneath A Steel Sky, (C) 1994 Revolution Software.

Oddities found within this font's design:

• The j is missing its tittle (corrected here)

• The stem of the k is 1 pixel shy of the full cap height (corrected here)

• There is an extra pixel width of space after the i, the lowercase L (l), the period (.), the colon (:), and the apostrophe ('), likely for increased legibility (retained here)

• The apostrophe (') is one pixel higher than the cap height (retained here)

There are also a few design differences between the glyphs for the player's saved games versus the font used for interacting with LINC (above):

• The saved game capital i (I) and number one (1) both have the same design, which is the same as the LINC lowercase L (l) above

• The saved game lowecase L (l) is actually 1 pixel taller than the cap height

• The saved game exclamation point (!) is 1 pixel shorter than the cap height

The original design oddities and the saved game variants are found in the More Latin section.
