Hi guys, I'm looking for a dot matrix font for windows.

I found one that was suitable, but I *really* dont want to pay $169 for a
font !

Any ideas

TIA

There are lots of free fonts that look like dot matrix. Ask google.

Here are some 42 pages of dot/LCD/&c fonts-all free. Perhaps you can find
something suitable there. If the best match to your requirements that you
can find with or without help is not a free font, I suppose that leaves
three choices: buy it, settle for another that is less good, or
re-evaluate your needs.
