Classic DOS on text mode can show on screen codepages with 256 charaters
(1 byte per character). Not sure but I think this is a hardware
limitation on the original x86 systems that was never changed because
everybody moved to graphics mode. Would be great have hardware with
support text modes with 2 bytes per character (256*256 = 65.536
characters per codepage)
Your programs on graphics mode can emulate unicode painting any
character on screen.
Read this page (old):
http://czyborra.com/unifont/
On this page explain a method to codify complex characters on a nice Hex
format that you draw on the screen.
The complete original font is here:

Based on Mr Czyborra's work, some people has been working on it with a
lot of enhacements.
