Nice! It's great to see this in the emulator :)
What is your feeling about font sizing?
It might be nice to stay visually similar to the old font, so that people don't have to adjust their existing code as much. Is it smaller because you're leaving room for diacretics? (Edit: nevermind, diacritics do not appear to be included in the font height.)
By the way, I notice that there appears to be missing vertices in a lot of characters. Did you by any chance use svg2bangle with default settings for the initial conversion? If so, you should make sure you run it with the error tolerance set to 0 so that it doesn't do any unwanted simplification.

Ok, just to let you know that the new font is now it current builds and the emulator: https://www.espruino.com/ide/emulator.html
It supports a whole bunch of non-ASCII characters now too, and uses https://github.com/espruino/Espruino/blob/master/scripts/fontmap_v0.3.svg as a base.
What is your feeling about font sizing? The current font is smaller (for the same 'size' argument). I could make it bigger but then we're in a situation where if you set the height at 24px and draw a 24px high rectangle, not all the text will be contained within it.
