CTR Font Format
.bcfnt files are bitmap fonts made for the 3ds. The system font uses this format too except the header is changed from CFNT to CFNU and all file offsets are changed to absolute in memory offsets.

Depending on the mapping method the next bytes are read like so:
Direct:
IndexOffset = read uint16
Table:
IndexTable = read uint16 array (CodeEnd - CodeBegin + 1)
Scan:
Number of Scan Entries = read uint16
for every scan entry: read uint16 & read uint16
