@Mighty23 Place your font in the image folder of your project, then use Engine.loadFontAs().
The font will be embedded in the binary:

@ustk thanks; What is "fontID" ?

[d.healey]

@Mighty23 It's a name you can use within your script to refer to the font. Make it something meaningful. I usually use names like "regular", "bold", "medium", etc.

@d-healey ok, it make sense.

I still can't figure out the workflow. I added myfont.ttf to the images folder and added:

Engine.loadFontAs(myfont.ttf, medium);

I have an "undefined parameter error".

@Mighty23

read the documentation.......

Engine.loadFontAs(String fileName, String fontId)

@Mighty23 said in How is the font distributed in the final product?:

Engine.loadFontAs(myfont.ttf, medium);

Engine.loadFontAs("myfont.ttf", "medium");

@Lindon @d-healey I'm having an issue right now where fonts that I reference are not working in my compiled plugin. Have you guys ever experienced this? I'm using Open Type Fonts.
