Is your feature request related to a problem?

There is no memory when the font is loaded Memory when the font is loaded Added 60MB of memory

Is it possible to construct a solution with the existing API?

No response

Describe the solution you'd like to see.

I think the memory is too large, do I have any solution that does not load fonts to display Chinese characters

Currently we load the full font into memory for speed. That increase is the size of the font uncompressed. Not sure what we can do about that?

Can I use the system default font directly，My aim is to support Chinese rather than using fonts

This is not currently possible but hopefully will be available in Fyne 2.5 which aims to support internationalization

Even using system fonts we will still be loading the data into memory.

Is there any way to reduce the memory consumed by fonts

In a future version we will have to look at lazy loading of glyph information. This will probably need to begin with work in the go-text project as the data loading all happens there now I think.

Thank you for your answers and look forward to further optimizing this memory in future versions

Developing Chinese software requires a built-in font, and any font file needs to be 10M in size, which is crazy
