Fonts in RISC OS

The FontManager is a ROM module.

Internally, fonts are located using millipoints (1/72000"), which is finer than the eye can see.

To display a character in a font, it relies on the Draw Module to render the image, either to a sprite or directly to the screen. A character may be a composite of multiple components. I expect, for example, é includes two components, the standard 'e' and the accent.
