I'm not talking about Okuda's offical glyphs from the show!! I'm talking
about the computer font which we can buy on the KLI merchant page!

Again, the font already exists; we can buy it from the KLI, without problems
from Paramount! I know they are not canon, but many of us use them. They
already exist. We use them, but we can't refer to the individual symbles?!
