I have a solution for fonts in Scratch. It could come with a few preset fonts in the paint editor like Arial, Scratch, and Times, but there could also be an import button:

Font:
(Arial)
(Times)
(Scratch)
(Import…)

When you click on Import it would pop up a dialog where you can give it a .ttf file, and have it added to the font menu (only for your project.)

Another feature, that i'm not sure how it would work, though, is to put custom fonts in your Backpack.

This would be cool! Support, or have any more things to add?

Yes, and Minecraft too? You know, something like VT323.

By the way, you should also accept .svg (Scalable Vector Graphics) files. Hope you're fine with it!

There should be a 10MB file size limit (the same limit costumes have), and no more than 5 fonts per project

What about allowing Google Fonts? Scratch wouldn't need to host the fonts themselves.

Google Fonts is also used in Google Docs. It has 1000+ free fonts such as:
  • Roboto
  • Lato
  • Montserrat
  • Source Sans Pro
  • Noto Serif
  • Inconsolata
  • Roboto Mono
  • Playfair Display
  • Comic Neue
  • JetBrains Mono

And then, we also wouldn't have to deal with font copyright issues. For example, Gill Sans MT is copyrighted and we probably would get in trouble by uploading it to the Scratch servers.

Yeah, but what about Priduct Sans tho? Product Sans is the font used by the Google logo, and Google is pretty chill with stuff. Im sure the Google company wouldn't mind a coding website to use their font.

what if we took this 1 step further, and added customizable fonts for blocks? Imagine having a font for each kind of block? note you cant apply a unique font to every block cuz thatd be too chaotic. but giving like the mystery font to all motion blocks, and the serif font to all of the looks blocks, and being able to change the font they use, itd be a whole thing.
