Yes, you can make your own fonts. But it is easier to use existing ones e.g.
https://github.com/prenticedavid/MCUFRIEND_kbv/blob/master/FreeDefaultFonts.h
or
https://github.com/prenticedavid/MCUFRIEND_kbv/blob/master/FreeSevenSegNumFontPlusPlus.h

Why not say what size you want ?

Or just say 90% or 80% version of FreeSevenSegNumFont
Or choose a font from U8g2lib library. And use U8g2_for_Adafruit_GFX if you are happier with GFX methods.

look at this library "SSD1306Ascii-master" it has many fonts and is very small because it does not have any graphics capability.
