  - Example Font (Bold, Regular)

With --format jsonl, font list writes one JSON object per visible font face in JSON Lines format.

Notes

• By default, font list shows fonts attributed to foton-managed packages. In uncommon cases, fonts from unknown locations may also appear when Windows cannot attribute their backing files more precisely.
• --include-system-fonts adds system fonts recognized by Windows.
• --include-user-fonts adds user fonts recognized by Windows.
• font list reads the font set recognized by Windows and classifies each visible font by the location of its backing file when possible.
