Bring back fonts from Scratch 1.0-1.4

How would this work?
1.x just used the fonts on your computer. which would cause issues
For example: Say someone (a Mac user) wanted to use Helvetica. However, Helvetica does not come with Windows, so it would use the default font, causing issues.
This is rejected.

We can't bring fonts back, because it is rejected:
Eh, that's not exactly the same thing. That rejected suggestion is more for setting the entire interface to look like 1.4 or 2.0. Individual features in those editors that are not present in 3.0 might still make a return.

Even if they did find a way to add this then people would have to install fonts for projects which use them to work.
Ok, let me clarify what I was saying: I was talking about the pre-existing 1.4 fonts where each letter was a separate image, not the part where you could use your own fonts.

I'm worried about legal issues (some fonts are copyrighted) but if the fonts Scratch used for 1.0-1.4 are free to use, then I'm totally fine with that.
Yeah, some like the grinch font probably wouldn't be able to be brought back.

I really like the fonts Scratch had from 1.0-1.4; can you (@Scratchteam) please bring them back as typable fonts alongside the current fonts?
There sadly weren't any built in fonts, and they were just fonts from the user's PC. The good thing is that you will have hundreds of fonts to choose from! Support.

Also, not everyone has the same fonts on their devices,.
