## What it is
Zpix (最像素) is a 12px pixel/bitmap font supporting English, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, and Japanese, distributed as TTF and BDF files. It is free for personal and educational use but requires a paid license for commercial products.

## Use cases
- pixel font for retro-style games
- bitmap font supporting Chinese characters
- 12px CJK font for pixel art UI
- Japanese pixel font for indie games
- font for low-resolution game displays
- pixel font for terminal or embedded UI

## When to choose
- you need a pixel font covering Chinese, Japanese, and English in one file
- you are building a retro/pixel-art game with CJK text
- your project is personal or educational and free use applies

## When to avoid
- you need an open-source font for commercial redistribution without licensing fees
- you need font sizes other than 12px
- you need to modify or convert the font, which the license forbids
