A curated collection of monospaced bitmap fonts (BDF/PCF) for X11, aimed at terminal and text-editor use. It catalogs and bundles fonts from many original authors with installation instructions for fontconfig-based Linux systems.
Use cases
- find a crisp monospaced bitmap font for my terminal
- install bdf/pcf fonts on Linux
- make bitmap fonts work on Ubuntu or Kali
- collect all existing X11 bitmap fonts in one place
- pick a pixel font for my tiling window manager setup
- fix fontconfig so bitmap fonts are not disabled
When to choose
- you want a sharp, pixel-perfect monospaced font for terminals on Linux/X11
- you want to browse many bitmap fonts from one repo instead of hunting sources
- you need legacy BDF/PCF font support with setup guidance
When to avoid
- you need scalable TrueType/OpenType fonts
- you are on Wayland-only or non-X11 environments where bitmap font support is limited
- you need a maintained font project with a license and active development
