DM-80 by Thor Christopher Arisland

Round-dot 9-pin dot matrix printer lettering, regular and light

DM-80 recreates the look of text from a 9-pin dot matrix printer. Every letter, number and symbol is built from a grid of round black dots, and all characters share the same width like a real monospaced printer font. You get the full set of upper and lowercase letters, numerals and common ASCII punctuation, so it handles whole sentences and data tables, not just titles.

Weights

DM-80 Regular - larger, closely packed dots for a bold, clear print
DM-80 Light - a lighter, more open dot pattern for smaller sizes and a fainter print

Web font files (woff and woff2) are also included in the download, so it can be used on websites as well as in design software.

Ideas for using it

Old office documents, invoices and receipts
Retro computer, hacker and sci-fi UI mockups
Posters and album art with a 1980s data-print vibe
Barcode-style labels, packaging and ticket designs
Code snippets or terminal-style text in a retro-themed layout

Because it is monospaced, it lines up neatly in columns. For authentic results, set it in black on off-white paper tones and keep the letter-spacing at default.
