Attach Font to a File (Perhaps BIMserver)

Anonymous

Hello!
Been searching through the forums and can't quite find an answer. We, like a lot of others, are having issues with fonts not transferring between computers. I understand we can import the fonts we need into Windows 10 or MacOS but we want to know if there is a way to embed a font into a file? Or can we have fonts be saved into our BIMserver? I am guessing we cannot since fonts are picked from the system folder. So does that mean archive files (.PLA) do not carry fonts either?

Thanks for any info!

Fonts are not embedded into any AC files. Fonts are typically copyrighted material and cannot freely copied / distributed, they need to licensed and installed on each machine using the font.
