Re cheating: I consider the space between glyphs not to be part of the font. If the glyphs overflow into that space, they touch adjacent glyphs, and are therefore cheating. If cheating is done sparingly, the merged glyphs can still be recognisable as individual glyphs joined together, but if it is done often, it becomes harder to work out where one begins and another ends. However, if the glyphs are drawn in different colours, it once again becomes easier. Without cheating, no account needs to be taken of which combinations of adjacent glyphs do not need to be used. -- |

I have serviceable 3x3 and 3x5 fonts I've created over the years. Experience tells me anything smaller than 3x5 is of questionable merit unless you've got a stylistic reason or you just want to tinker with sub-pixels. --> |
