just a note on Ferengi fnt there is some differences between 20 vs 28 fnt on capital letters

e,f,j,q are different and h/w ratio is off on all fnt sizes, all races (this is why my ttf fonts will never match all vanilla sizes)
I copied and pasted 20 fnt below 28

here is version 5, But it is my final attempt

Good job, but I'm not sure if the sharpness would stand up to scrutiny on today's high-resolution displays (1024 and 4k).

That's what I discovered when I meticulously re-created the (attached) TTF of the BOTF Federation font -- at a high degree of fidelity, best I could achieve. I called it First Frontier (as opposed to Final Frontier -- get it?? hehe). It is 'adequate' for raw text, but not exceptional. I always aim for exceptional. In ROTF the only capacity I'm using it in is in labels and buttons, where it does look good. For all else, I'm using professional fonts.

Thanks, and yes they were more intended for fun and for original GUI buttons and other text so they would match.
