I have a WIP renderer for the TDF font format for UNIX that I'm working on, which can output the fonts in CP437 or UTF-8 format on the terminal, or with the help of another tool, to a PNG.

Example output:

That looks like a 4 at the end, but it's a 9. A lot of the TDF fonts are a bit crazy.

Better image showing the different colored versions that are stored inside some TDF's:

Another example rendered to terminal rather than PNG using Unicode:

Although for some bizarre reason, gnome screenshot tool completed changed the colors around.



That's pretty cool!
