I can't immediately help you, but I think a proper solution should not mix 
letters and figured bass numbers.
If I see correctly you intend harmonic analysis only.

So the approach would rather be to somehow stack numbers and letters from text 
fonts. This would also allow for a more coherent appearance.

How urgent is this for you? Do you need _some_ solution immediately or could 
you spend some time helping with a proper solution until your book is ready?

I'd be very interested in such a package too.
