It's interesting to me that those fonts seem to include ink traps: curious if this has anything to do with the display tech that's used in the cockpit

Stuff that are on display can also be printed (on board in the cockpit) for whatever reasons the pilots decide.

I thought that the printed were using thermal printing (for which I'm not sure the ink traps apply) but maybe not all of them.
