You can specify the vertical and horizontal
dimensions of a character in bitmap fonts. When you magnify/shrink
characters, the outline may become rough or the letter may appear
compressed.
This is an outline font where the ratio of
the character height/width is fixed. The letters will have a smooth
outline even if you magnify/shrink them. However, this font uses
more disk space on the display unit.
