During the rendering process in XMF, fonts are embedded in input files.
The list of system fonts is updated only when the server is rebooted. In a simple structure consisting of a single system box of XMF with a standalone PC, the list of system fonts is not used frequently. However, in distributed surroundings for multi-system boxes of XMF with multiple PCs, higher frequency of use is expected. You must confirm whether or not to update the list after installing system fonts.
