Try configuring your PC to 7 bits, plus SPACE parity - this should always
TX a 0 in outgoing B7, and ignore incoming B7 ...

All:
Uploading using Raw ASCII in Procomm Plus at 8N1 and then changing
to 7S1 works perfectly. It's two steps but it's easier than making a font.
Thanks.

If you still want a font, you might try playing with this font editor

May, or may not, be easy for you to do what you want.
