The Ahem font was developed by Todd Fahrner and Myles C. Maxfield to help test writers develop predictable tests. The units per em is 1000, the ascent is 800, and the descent is 200, thereby making the em square exactly square. The glyphs for most characters is simply a box which fills this square. The codepoints mapped to this full square with a full advance are the following ranges:
- U+20-U+26
