Crystal fonts[edit]

FTA: It was essentially a clone of the IBM 8514/A with a few notable extensions such as Crystal fonts.

1) The article should explain what Crystal fonts are: anti-aliased fonts.

2) Although the documentation claims these are fully accelerated, it's just a single paragraph with no technical information. None of the registers seem to have anything to do with fonts. Parsing TTF is kind of involved. Crystal fonts didn't work in DOS. Conclusion: these were implemented mostly in software, where the driver generates the glyph bitmaps and the card blends them to the framebuffer.
