Create a Mac or iOS Custom Font Policy

This policy allows you to supply one TrueType or OpenType font or typeface to a device or group of devices. The font must be smaller than 1 MB and will be embedded in the profile that is delivered with this policy. 

A TrueType (.TTF) or OpenType (.OTF) font or typeface is delivered and installed on the device. After installation, the font is visible in the FontBook.app, and can be used by any application in macOS. This policy works on macOS devices running macOS 10.15 and later and iOS devices running iOS 11 and later.
