We need to find a font that supports the codepoints here: http://fileformats.archiveteam.org/wiki/DEC_Special_Graphics_Character_Set

Does any in https://github.com/olikraus/u8g2/wiki/fntlistall do that? How do we find it?

Sorry, that one is sort of doing the reverse of what we need - it draws something that looks like a classic VT220 on a high-resolution screen, including all the phosphor artifacts of the original CRT. What we need is a bitmap font, preferably an 6x4 pixels one, that contains the right glyphs for the DEC special characters as well as some sensible unicode subset (say latin-1 or something)...
