But right now I'm just trying to blit a CGA font to the screen, as that's relatively simple.

Right--a simple block font is no more complex than with any other
Apple II.  It's just the "GS fonts" that are hairy--and have arbitrary
heights and widths.

It is possible though. Apex System builder, an 8 bit application can display GS fonts on Hires, DHires and the GS screens. I have little experience with the GS screens though. One might get a bit more info looking at the font editor which should be in the Apex archive. Sadly, Microgram didn't release the source to Apex as well.
