Perhaps the grub.cfg I used on the Fedora disk would illustrate it:
set default=0
set timeout=5
if font /boot/grub/unifont.pff ; then
set gfxmode=640x480
insmod gfxterm
insmod vbe
terminal gfxterm
insmod png
background_image /isolinux/splash.png
fi
menuentry "Install Fedora 9 Beta" {
linux /isolinux/vmlinuz
initrd /isolinux/initrd.img
}
menuentry "Install Fedora 9 Beta (text mode)" {
linux /isolinux/vmlinuz text
initrd /isolinux/initrd.img
}
menuentry "Rescue installed system" {
linux /isolinux/vmlinuz rescue
initrd /isolinux/initrd.img
}
menuentry "Boot from local drive" {
chainloader (hd0)+1
}
menuentry "Test memory" {
linux /boot/memtest
}

It only works for gfxterm.

Debian still has it:
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/u/unifont/unifont_1.0.orig.tar.gz
No idea what happened to the original distributor.
