As the name suggests, any sitelen pona character is made out of blocks that fit into a box of 5 times 5 blocks. To do so, it sometimes relies on alternate versions of the glyphs. Of all computer-installable pixel fonts, it achieves the lowest amount of blocks

'''Fairfax''' is a {{w|font family}} comprising 11 individual fonts, which are designed to cover all the {{w|Script (Unicode)|script}} in the [[UCSUR]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.kreativekorp.com/software/fonts/fairfax/|title=Fairfax|website=KreativeKorp|author=Rebecca Bettencourt|access-date=10 November 2023}}</ref> It was created and maintained by Rebecca Bettencourt ({{tok|jan Lepeka}}), who is also in charge of UCSUR. {{tp|sitelen pona}} was added to UCSUR in 26 August 2021.

~~Fonts~~ ~~with~~ ~~'''HD'''~~ in ~~their~~ ~~name~~ ~~refer~~ to a ~~vector font,~~ fonts ~~without~~ it ~~are~~ ~~6x12~~ ~~pixel~~ ~~fonts~~. HD supercedes the "SD" pixel fonts, ~~but~~ ~~the SD fonts~~ are still maintained. '''Serif''' means Latin characters and their fullwidth versions are in serif. '''Hax''' adds specific ligatures for programming to make common operators more streamlined. ''SM'' only features characters with the ~~same~~ ~~width as ASCII to make sure programs that are unable to consider {{w|PANOSE}} for character width. Finally, '''Pona'''~~ refers to those fonts that allow Toki Pona words to be converted from ~~typed-in~~ ASCII to {{tp|sitelen pona}} through OpenType ligatures.

The main series (without an ending) consits of 6x12 pixelated fonts. The "HD" series refers to a {{w|Vector graphics|vector}} font. HD supercedes the "SD" series of pixel fonts, however, those are still maintained. Finally, the "Pona" series refers to those fonts that allow Toki Pona words to be converted from ASCII to {{tp|sitelen pona}} through OpenType ligatures.

~~All~~ ~~these~~ ~~''except''~~ the ~~ones~~ ~~with~~ ~~"SM"~~ in ~~their name have~~ {{tp|sitelen pona}} ~~in the UCSUR codepoints.~~

As of November 2023, the following fonts have support for {{tp|sitelen pona}}:

* Fairfax

Fairfax is created by jan Lepeka, who is also in charge of UCSUR. {{tp|sitelen pona}} was added in 2021-08-26, the ligature "Pona" fonts were added in 2022-08-10 to the "HD" version and 2022-11-05 for the SD version.

{{tp|linja pimeja}} is a font in handwritten style using a thick marker pen. It was created by increpare ({{tok|jan Inkepa}}) in 2019.

Five {{tp|[[nimi ku suli]]}} glyphs were also added:

Colored fonts are not supported everywhere. If the color feature is not supported, the font tends to get displayed as black (or whatever the default color is set to) anywhere there is color. As a result, they may look like bold black characters, which should not hinder legibility.

{{tp|sitelen Antowi}} (Android) is a reimagining of {{tp|sitelen pona}} characters as if they were material design UI icons (as used, for example, for apps or setting pictograms on mobile operating systems).
