+# Installing Windows supplementary fonts with Features on Demand
+
+<BlogByline />
+
+Windows 10 and 11 ship with a large catalog of fonts, but many are not
+installed by default. These supplementary fonts — covering Japanese, Korean,
+Chinese, Arabic, Hebrew, Thai, Pan-European, and many other scripts — are
+available as Features on Demand (FOD) but require manual installation through
+Settings or PowerShell.
+
+Fontist 3.0 now installs these fonts automatically. A single command is all it
+takes:
+
+```sh
+$ fontist install "Meiryo"
+```
+
+## The problem
+
+Windows does not install all available fonts by default to save disk space.
+Fonts like Meiryo (Japanese), Batang (Korean), Arial Nova (Pan-European), and
+Plantagenet Cherokee are available as optional Features on Demand but require
+either navigating through Windows Settings or running PowerShell commands with
+admin privileges.
+
+For CI pipelines running on Windows, this is especially inconvenient.
+Documents that reference these fonts fail to render correctly when the fonts
+are missing.
+
+## How it works
+
+When you install a Windows FOD font through Fontist, it:
+
+1. Checks whether the required Windows capability is already installed using
+   `Get-WindowsCapability`
+2. If not present, installs it using `Add-WindowsCapability -Online`
+3. Verifies the font files are now available in `C:\Windows\Fonts\`
+
+This uses the Formula v5 schema with a `source: windows_fod` resource type,
+which tells Fontist to handle installation through the operating system rather
+than downloading an archive.
+
+## Installing a font
+
+Install any Windows FOD font by name:
+
+```sh
+$ fontist install "Meiryo"
+```
+
+```sh
+$ fontist install "Arial Nova"
+```
+
+```sh
+$ fontist install "Plantagenet Cherokee"
+```
+
+Use `--accept-all-licenses` for non-interactive installs:
+
+```sh
+$ fontist install "Meiryo" --accept-all-licenses
+```
+
+## Using in CI
+
+On GitHub Actions Windows runners, FOD font installation works out of the box
+since the runners have admin privileges:
+
+```yaml
+- name: Install fonts
+  run: gem install fontist && fontist install "Meiryo" --accept-all-licenses
+  shell: pwsh
+```
+
+## Requirements
+
+- Windows 10 (version 1607) or later
+- Administrator privileges (required by `Add-WindowsCapability`)
+- Internet connectivity (Windows downloads the font capability on first install)
+
+To check which FOD font capabilities are available on your system, run:
+
+```powershell
+Get-WindowsCapability -Online -Name "Language.Fonts.*"
+```
+
+## Available fonts
+
+Fontist supports 24 Windows FOD capability groups containing 100 font families.

+## What else is new in Fontist 3.0
+
+Windows FOD support is part of the Fontist 3.0 release, which also includes
+these improvements:
+
+**Formula v5 schema.**
+Formulas now support multiple font formats (TTF, OTF, WOFF2), variable font
+metadata, and import provenance. See our earlier post on Formula v5 for the full details.
+
+**Platform-aware font selection.**
+Manifests now validate operating system compatibility before attempting to
+install platform-specific fonts, preventing errors when a font is only
+available on one platform.
+
+**Skip license prompts for already-installed fonts.**
+If a font is already present on the current operating system, Fontist skips the
+license confirmation step, reducing friction when re-running installations.
+
+**Lazy formulas initialization.**
+The formulas repository is no longer cloned at startup. Fontist defers this
+until the first operation that actually needs formulas, making initial startup
+faster.
+
+**Index rebuild speedup.**
+The index rebuild process has been optimized for large formula repositories,
+reducing the time needed to refresh the font index.
+
+## Conclusion
+
+Windows FOD font support rounds out Fontist's platform coverage. Together with
+macOS supplementary fonts, Google Fonts, SIL fonts, and Microsoft Office fonts,
+Fontist now provides automated installation of openly-licensed fonts across all
+major platforms.
+
+Install Fontist and try it:
+
+```sh
+$ gem install fontist
+$ fontist install "Meiryo"
+```
