ear Customer,
Thanks for your posting here.
After evaluating your post, I could provide three solutions as below for
your reference.
Analysis:
=========
The most important thing in this case is the package for the font . If the
manufacturer can provide a MSI package and it supports silent installation,
we can deploy the font by using Group Policy - Computer
Configuration\Software Settings\Software Installation.
If the fonts can be automatically installed with a command or a script
file, we can also deploy it by using Group Policy-Computer
Configuration\Windows Settings\Scripts (Startup/Shutdown).
Therefore, please check the font package to see which method can be used in
your environment.
More Information:
==============
1. For MSI based installation:
We can use Software Settings in Group Policy to deploy MSI package which
support silent installation.
To do so, in the Group Policy snap-in, select either the Computer
Configuration node, double-click Software Settings, and then right-click
Software Installation for further setting.
For the detailed information about how to use Group Policy to remotely
install software, please refer to the below KB article to learn more:

2. For Startup script installation method:
You can also apply startup script to realize this if the font can be
deployed via commands or a batch file/script. Startup script (but not user
Logon script) need to be used as it is executed in the local System context.
About how to create startup script to finish installation, please refer to
this:
How to create scripts to install a software:

ue
About where to create a startup script, please refer to the following steps:
In the Group Policy snap-in, select either the Computer Configuration node,
under the Windows setting, you can find "Scripts(Startup/Shutdown)". In
the right panel, double-click "Startup" option to input corresponding
script there.
If anything is unclear, please feel free to let me know. Thanks and have a
nice weekend.
Regards
Sincerely
