BliztMax support for non ttf fonts (8x8 homebrew)

I'm about to incorporate my own 8x8 font into BlitzMax for the first time. I've just read through the loadimagefont command which seems to support ttf only

What's the best way to get my 8x8 font (.png) into BlitzMax ? Is there a short-cut, or do I have to write my own text routine which inputs the string and outputs the equivalent in my font?

Have a look at Bitmap font code...
