Text won't appear if user does not have font

[cubician]

I'm developing a VSTi. The font used for everything is Futura. Computers that do not have Futura will not display the text, thus leaving knobs without labels.

Is there a way to include a font within the VSTi, or do I have to bake everything to a bitmap?

EDIT: Here's pictures of the issue. The first is the VSTi working properly on a computer with the font, and the second is a test computer without the font installed.

[tester]

"Font" primitive has input node called "alternative typefaces". Adding there something like arial or else present by default in the system - should help (though - never tested - check what manuals write about it).

Another way is to use bitmaps with texts on it instead this.

Baking it in is generally the best way if you can, but otherwise you'd have to create a Windows installer that installs the font along with the plugin.
