Custom Fonts
Hey all, I've only just started messing around with RMXP and I'm currently making my first game so I'm still figuring out how everything works etc.
This might be a stupid question with an extremely simple answer but I was just wondering about custom fonts. If I have a font I've downloaded and am now using in the game, what do I have to do to make that font automatically load for someone who plays the game on another computer that doesn't have the font file installed? Is there a way to include it in the game resources? Or do I have to have it with the rest of the files and have instructions to install it or something (which seems silly)?

Again, sorry if it's a stupid question. Any help is appreciated
:)

I think you'd have to package the font in yourself and have the user install it on their own computer before playing the game.

Ah bummer, was hoping there would be an easier way, that seems like such a hassle.
Thanks anyway though :)

There's an auto-install script for fonts. I've never used it though: https://github.com/wachunga/rmxp-auto-font-install
