Thanks for the continued search and it appears you have the font even though there may be differences that you mentioned earlier.
I did update my 2013 post almost 5.5 years later. ;-)
I am considering maybe updating the original zip file and add an informative text file with your information of how the font style, used to create instruction pieces for Knights in Armor, was probably created. That way if a new sheet needs to be created from scratch, the user will have some idea of going about creating a similar instructions sheet with almost same font style.
In the end, maybe pointless since extremely very few cabs of Knights in Armor still exist these days. But at least something in case more Knights in Armor cabs still exist out there and an owner wants to use actual original looking instruction sheet pieces that were made in mid 1970s.
To see what a cab looks like see the 2017 thread:
-- Knights In Armor (PSE, 1976) 05/11/17
http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/sho...part=1&vc=1 --
For the game to be emulated in MAME, Knights in Armor has two roms that are needed in pse.cpp source file (not yet dumped), and then logic schematics, which I have and needing to be scanned and uploaded later which I hope to do this year, are needed in order to handle the netlist emulation and also the various ttl chips (some not yet emulated) along with various analog circuitry also needing to be done in netlist related work.
Basically a truckload of work before any chance that Knights in Armor might happen in MAME.
