The user guide just gives the shape of the character in mode 7; for what
can be seen from page 480 the character matrix is 6x10 with the actual characters
using just 5x7 and graphic codes spanning the whole rectangle.
The MODE 7 font could be recovered from a software BBC emulator or sampled
again from the UG.
