Where can I paste ASCII art?

Anywhere that uses a fixed-width, monospace font, which is where the alignment holds. That means code editors, README files, terminals and most code blocks. In a normal proportional font the letters will still appear but the spacing drifts, so the banner looks neater in monospace.

Why are some characters missing from the banner?

The banner font covers the letters A to Z, the digits, and a handful of punctuation marks. Anything outside that set, like accented letters, is skipped rather than drawn wrong. Stick to plain letters and numbers for a clean result.

Does the ASCII art use a real font?

No. Each letter is drawn from a small built-in pattern of characters, so the output is plain text you can copy and paste. There is nothing to install, and it works the same on every device.
