PC Screen Font
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
The PC Screen Font (PSF) format is a fixed-width bitmap font format originally used on the PC under MS-DOS. It was subsequently adopted and extended for Linux console fonts.
PSF has been extended to support Unicode. The .psfu file extension is sometimes used to indicate that the file includes Unicode mappings, though .psf files often have them as well.
