# scientifica > Tall and condensed bitmap font for geeks. `scientifica` is largely based on [`creep`](https://github.com/romeovs/creep), with a number of minor tweaks to improve readability (*a matter of taste of course*). Most characters are just 4px wide, which is brilliant for low dpi(90-120) displays. ## What's new? - Scaleable `ttf` format - Raster formats: `otb` and `bdf` - **Bold** and *Italic* variants - New Characters to the following unicode blocks: * Geometric Shapes * Arrows * Miscellaneous Technical * Miscellaneous Symbols * Miscellaneous Mathematical Symbols-A * Private Use Area (Powerline symbols) * Mathematical Operators * Box Drawings - Revamped characters: `V, *, f, W, M, ~, & , i, t, a, (), [], {}` ## Gallery | ![sample image](./img/sci4.png) | ![sample image](./img/sci2.png) | ![sample image](./img/sci3.png) | ![sample image](./img/sci1.png) | | -------------------------------- | -------------------------------- | -------------------------------- | -------------------------------- | | Programming | Box Drawings | Latin, Polish, Slovakian, French, German | Powerline glyphs | ## Installation Installation instructions have been moved to [`INSTALL.md`](INSTALL.md) ## Credits Most Basic Latin characters are from [creep](https://github.com/romeovs/creep) by [romeovs](https://github.com/romeovs/). Creep has been optimized for linux terminals by [raymond-w-ko](https://github.com/raymond-w-ko/). Check out his version [here](https://github.com/raymond-w-ko/creep2). Some characters are based on [Lemon](http://artwizaleczapka.sourceforge.net/). Thanks to the creators of [Font Forge](https://fontforge.github.io/en-US/) for, well, creating fontforge.
