Look in scribble/text/output.rkt for how I did it -- I think that
using bytes was slightly faster but I preferred to use strings to keep
the code simpler. (The code there is complex for other reasons,
mostly the indentation management.)

Yes -- and it's certainly stable enough to document. If you want I
can send a short description of how it's used. (Maybe you'll be
willing to document it (wink wink)?)
