i might have to disagree on this one... I dont think it is a font and if it is it is heavily distored on character-by-character basis... for example in Illustrator...
take a look at the 't's.. One has a little round shape on the end of the horizontal line, the other one has a very short stem and yet another one has very curvy stem...
'a's a different as weel as 'n's.. well.. if you keep looking at it mots letters have barely noticable differences in them...
if you like the idea of the font ( jumping letters ) try this one:

I agree, much appreciated addition. However, how is everyone feeling about the the upward stem on the letter 'g'?

looks good.. simple and smooth... a touch too bold though. The "i" looks like the dot is touching the stem...
so did you craete it or actually opened up Porky's and edited it?

You will find this info in the metric data. For example:
Font Family: Endor Alt
? Metric data ?
Heigth of the character cell: 101
Units above the base line: 76
Units below the base line: 25
Internal leading : 1
Space between rows: 0
Designed for aspect ratio: 96 : 96
Current aspect ratio: 0 : 0
Font Family: Endor
? Metric data ?
Heigth of the character cell: 188
Units above the base line: 136
Units below the base line: 52
Internal leading : 88
Space between rows: 1
Designed for aspect ratio: 96 : 96
Current aspect ratio: 0 : 0
There is of course a lot more info in the metric data but that would make this a rather long (and boring) post.

What's New?
Special thanks for proofreading of AFV's documentation to John Lusting.
Characters Map now supports all Unicode ranges.
The annoying yellow tool tip in the main font list was deleted. The tip appeared each time when there was no enough space for text in the table cell.
Program startup is much faster.
Many other minor improvements and over patching added.

Thak you. But too much honour. On second thought there is a catch!! This quick and dirty way may over-write your formulas. Can be overcome though with the same trick.
Per column celect the cells with text > copy
In Word > Paste.
Apply format > change case. Copy.
In Excel goto top cell of those copied > paste.
So savest way is to only apply this cheap trick on tezt cells.

i know its an old post, but i will answer for the google searchers like me :)
gahtering info from http://newsgroups.derkeiler.com/Archive/Comp/comp.fonts/2006-06/msg00002.html
"this is my very humble opinion, and a correct answer (for screen purpose only) could be:
Part 1: FON to BDF Convertion.
For example, using the Macromedia Fontographer ver.4.1 (Windows 98, not XP!):
- File->New Font,
- File->Import->Bitmaps... (a_font.fon),
- File->Generate Font Files... (output bitmap font format: BDF),
- Rename "untitled.YY" to "a_font.bdf",
- Remember the values followed after the keyword "FONTBOUNDINGBOX" in a_font.bdf -
the font's WIDTH, HEIGHT, LEFT, BOTTOM (for example: 8 12 0 -2),
- Replace all "SWIDTH 0 0" and "SWIDTH 1000 0" values with "SWIDTH 0", where
WIDTH1 = WIDTH * 1000 / HEIGHT (for example: "SWIDTH 667 0").
Part 2: BDF to TTF Convertion (Using FontLab Studio 5).
- File->New,
- File->Font Info->Names and Copyright->Full Name: a_font,
- File->Font Info->Metrics and Dimensions: Set "Font's UPM size" to HEIGHT*100, scaling glyphs (1200),
- File->Import->Bitmap Font... (a_font.bdf),
- Edit->Select All,
- Tools->Background->Trace Pixels,
- (If needed) Select the "space" cell, execute:
Glyph->Create Glyphs and Tools->Action->Metrics->Set width: (667),
- File->Font Info->Metrics and Dimensions: adjust the values according to the "Font's UPM size", for example
(assume "UPM size" = 1200):
[Key dimensions]
Ascender = 900
Descender = -200
Caps height = 900
x height = 600
Check "Font is monospaced" if needed
....
[TrueType-specific metrics] : "Set custom values" :
Typo Ascender = 900
Typo Descender = -200
Typo Line Gap = 0
WinAscent = 1000
WinDescent = -200
....
- File->Generate Font: a_font.ttf
My best wishes to all Ladies :)
Thank You.
Vadim. "
