Benjamin Fennell (Nov 18 2024 at 13:29): Benjamin Fennell (Nov 18 2024 at 13:29):I started to implement the OCR-A font as an exercise with creating sketches. Here is two renderings of OCR-A's numbers:

And finally a screengrab for a more precise view:

I will probably finish the entire font set in a week or so.
If you want to peruse the OCR-A specificaion NIST published it on their website: (https://nvlpubs.nist.gov/nistpubs/Legacy/FIPS/fipspub32-1-1981.pdf)

Here are two BRL-CAD renderings in the OCR-A font:
