Some time ago, I deposited a font for Macintosh computers with the EMBL
software archive. This font had two components. Puppy represents
nucleotide sequences as a series of dots in three lines. Kitty has
characters that have a vague resemblance to amino acid structure and
function. Puppy is available as a font itself in PUPPY_PS.HQX or
PUPPY_TT.HQX. Puppy and Kitty are available in combination (lower case
puppy; upper case KITTY) in PUPKIT_PS.HQX and PUPKIT_TT.HQX. The two file
types are for postscript and true type fonts.
The ftp address of the EMBL archive is: ftp.EMBL-Heidelberg.DE
