This gave me an idea. Although the 8×8 fonts cannot be synthetically obliqued and boldfaced, because they are square, rectangular Ubuntu Mono can be.

So I can use #unscii PET for upright medium, unscii #BBCMicro for upright boldface, and #UbuntuMono for the oblique medium and boldface.

It works out fairly well.
