Font Location/Detection

Where does RMXP look when searching for a font?
It doesn't mention it in the help file (at least in my searching), and in the code, one simply has to put the name in quotes. Where exactly is it looking? and is it possible for me to change where it looks?
I ask because many people are having problems with my game because of the font, however I'm very fond of it and am having trouble figuring out distribution legalities. I've seen it available for free download on a fairly mainstream site, though others charge. I am fairly confident, however, if I distribute the game encrypted with the font, I should be good. But how am I to do this without packing the font with it and it is not encrypted--as this is my current situation. (could I do something silly like a disclaimer saying "If I download this file/demo i agree to not distribute this font and only install it for use with the Beyond the Veil Demo?)
