Thanks for sharing your results, oha. Author of "PixelOperator8.ttf" has clearly put some effort into his font, so that at 8 px height text looks as good as it possibly ever can, probably. (See some comparisons below.) I just hope these 8 px are not modern display pixels, but something larger.
Your link is to outdated (and named differently) version, which produces "somewhat" inferior result. Here is better link.
Below is "screenshot" (produced in a way similar to what you did:
say $im-> getscanline( y => $_, type => 'index' )
=~ tr/\0\1/O /r
for 0 .. $im-> getheight - 1;
, for "paletted" image 80x60, similar to what I did :) ), for these test subjects:
'10714/8bitOperatorPlus8-Regular.ttf', # Abomination from wrong link
'pixel_operator/PixelOperator8.ttf', # Correct version
'ucs-fonts/6x12.bdf', # 'Fixed', from my answer above

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link or

are good places to start.
