Identify the maker and the four listed resources
The DS-Digital distribution listing credits Dusit Supasawat, places the resource in its LCD category and lists DS-DIGI.TTF, DS-DIGIB.TTF, DS-DIGII.TTF and DS-DIGIT.TTF. It marks the family Shareware and says it was first seen before 2005. That boundary is not a precise creation year. Record the full selected file and inspect its actual font-menu name before comparing a similarly named digital-clock family.
Keep a software credit scoped to the application
Defective Records’ DP Editor documentation, acknowledgments, explicitly thanks Supasawat for DS-Digital. This is a first-party application credit, not evidence that a particular Ensoniq hardware screen uses the same font. When documenting an interface, identify whether the reference is a software display or the physical device instead of transferring an attribution from one to the other.
Proof all values and units before adding display effects
For an original instrument-panel mockup, compare 00:00, 11:11, 08:59 and 23:59, then include a minus sign, decimal point and the actual unit label. Keep the text box fixed and inspect changes in occupied width rather than assuming every digital-looking font has the same metrics. Place a plain explanatory label beside the readout so its meaning remains clear. Orbitron and VT323 are independent comparisons, not DS-Digital files. The homepage copyable number and letter styles transforms Unicode characters; it does not run a timer, read an instrument or install this family.
Your questions, answered.
Does selecting DS-Digital make a live clock?
No. A font controls the appearance of supplied characters. A timer or instrument needs separate application behavior.
Does the DP Editor credit identify the font in the original hardware?
No. Keep the documented software credit separate from an unsupported claim about the physical device’s display.
