Thank you. I've attached a small font file containing your numbers with
the Real Madrid crest. It's also by itself in the @ position.
Two questions - Where did you find the original alphabet, and what did
you use to create the glyphs?
One note: The "round" characters (C, G, N, O, Q, U, etc.) appear too
small [see attached image]. That's because they're exactly the same
height as the rest of the alphabet. Normally, these letters have to drop
below the baseline and/or rise above the height of the other letters in
order to appear optically correct.
