I'm afraid that I do not understand what the fundamental issue is. Can you please clarify what it is about (for example) the cyrillic font included with the Hershey Text extension that makes it unsuitable for your use?

It is possible to (for example) reorder the characters within the set, or to create new fonts within the Hershey framework.
Would doing so (reordering the cyrillic characters, or adding new fonts) solve the issue, or are there separate reasons that this plugin cannot work beyond not having the fonts that you need?
