Base latin uppercase and numerals based on a type of French postal matrix font. Had to create almost all of the lowercase (from samples for a, c, g, i, and s), and clearly had a lot of fun seeing how many different characters I could fit within that 7-dot height. First time attempting Cyrillic and Hebrew scripts.
I messed with the filters until the dot spread was the most faithful possible to the printed references.
The original being monospaced I might post a mono copy.

If anyone knows how to avoid this type of stuff happening when designing fontstructions I'd love to know since it also causes problems in word processors and adobe products.
@Morphëunox - Have you adjusted/set the glyph widths and overall glyph height?
Width = Menu > Letter Width
Height =
1. Turn on EXPERT MODE
2. Menu > Line Height
Metrics in OTF downloads are bugged. I'm not sure when Meek will be able to fix it.
Thank you both ! it seems like .otf is indeed the culprit since .ttf is perfectly fine, which is slightly annoying. My line heights and letter widths were accurate, Fontstruct does a good job of automating those.
