Thanks for the awnsers, I'm sorry for awnsering that lately.
I allready made a sulution the brute force way by creating a
new 7x4 pixel font in a header. I was using bool arrays for the
pixel and the GrPoint function to draw it on the screen. Packed
all together in a class with fuctions to print out full char arrys
and it becomes handy like the GrText function. Unfortunately my
method slows down the output quite a bit. You can nearly see which
char is actually redrawn, so i defently will give the GrText a second
try.
