For Amiga:  (not my organization, not inpartial)
1) You can define your own character sets.
2) The speed is comprable to the built in rom sets for characters of
	about the same size and shape (fixed pitch)
3) any size font is allowed.
4) partial fonts (<256 characters) are allowed and encoraged.
5) to output text in your font you:
	AddFont(texffont);
	OpenFont(textatribute);
	Text(rastport, string, chat_count);

A font editor is not yet available from Commodore-Amiga.
