Description

When I use tilelive-xray to render a vector tileset, the chinese characters are not properly rendered. Since it hard to find a font that includes all languages all over the world, so providing a way to change the font of xray default style will be better.

Research direction

The issue names tilelive-xray's default style as the entry point, but provides no file or test to start from. Locate how that style selects fonts and determine how a caller could provide a replacement; done means the configured font is used for rendering Chinese characters correctly.
