A font recreated from photographs of classic Commodore 64 keycaps

A photo-based reconstruction of classic Commodore 64 keycap lettering presented as desktop fonts (TTF/OTF), a webfont, editable glyph outlines, build scripts, and preview/specimen files. The package includes uppercase letters, numbers, punctuation, the pound sign, selected accented characters (including Hungarian), function-key labels (F1-F12), and all 63 PETSCII graphic front legends arranged by key. Lowercase input is rendered as uppercase to match printed key legends. A preview.html lets users insert special keys and PETSCII symbols into a type tester and copy them into applications; copied symbols require the font to display correctly. Releases and a changelog are provided, and the project is explicitly an independent, unofficial reconstruction; original photos are not included.

Reconstruction decisions are documented: shapes are cleaned and normalized with smooth geometric outlines rather than pixel-by-pixel bitmap traces, and frame thickness, curves, and print proportions are inferred from supplied keyboard photographs and the Ultimate Commodore 64 Reference for key assignments. Editable outlines live in a glyphs/ folder and build tools in scripts/, enabling further modification. The readme and specimens show comparison images and usage instructions; version guidance (replace earlier installs with VERSION 1.107) and encoding notes for PETSCII mapping are given.
