IBM OS/2 System VIO fonts in PCF format

The System VIO fonts have been extracted from IBM OS/2 distribution.

The original fonts are designed for large number of scripts, but the fonts here contain glyphs from Latin-1 and Cyrillic codepages only, and are present in iso8859-1, koi8-r, cp866, cp1251, and iso10646-1 encodings.

The effort is made by Dmitry Karasik, Vadim Belman, and Anton Berezin. The archive contains the following fonts:
