noticed that text in debug mode was displayed using a width of 7. the fonts are 8 pixels wide so this effectively chops off some of the pixels from each character.

the culprit is src/debug/scr_printf.c in the function pspDebugScreenPrintData(), other parts of the file needs changing to fix this as well.

    this is a sdk bug could you post a bug report on ps2dev, since they are the owners of the code? Thanks!

    On second thought. I suspect this might have been done deliberately.

    People shouldn't be using debug text output for their applications in the first place. Normal alphanumeric letters doesn't seem to use more than 7 bits width, but some extended ascii do use the full width and appears chopped off.

    For regular text the result is that you can display 8 more characters more on each line.

    I can't register at ps2dev so just feel free to close the bug report.
