Allow Local Fonts permission on these sites
Supported on Microsoft Windows 7 or later
What it does
Sets a list of site url patterns that specify sites which will automatically grant the local fonts permission. This will extend the ability of sites to see information about local fonts. For detailed information on valid site url patterns, please see https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/url-patterns. Wildcards, *, are allowed. This policy only matches based on origin, so any path in the URL pattern is ignored. If this policy is not set for a site then the policy from DefaultLocalFontsSetting applies to the site, if set, otherwise the permission will follow the browser's defaults and allow users to choose this permission per site. Example value: https://www.example.com [*.]example.edu

- Some Microsoft policies use built-in Policy CSP pages whose area names don't match the ADMX file name, so verify the candidate against Microsoft Learn before deployment.
