A question about font assets in Defold

Hi all,

I am new to Defold and still exploring the engine. Currently, I am trying to make a game that will contain texts in English and CJK localizations. I have a question about how Defold processes font assets:

I would like to use a licensed font, so I am wondering if Defold requires the font file (.otf in my case) to be embedded in the app or delivered for release?

From my understanding, Defold doesn’t require that, but I just want to double check.

Thanks!

No, we process the font when building and include a rasterized glyph map (texture) in the game archive.
