The docs for terminal.font currently say that it “must be a path to a TTF font,” however OTF files work fine as well (the link name must be font.ttf regardless). TTC files also appear to work, but because TTC files are basically a bunch of TTFs wrapped up into a single file, there’s no way to control which typeface gets used.
So almost every font package in nixpkgs can be used by nix-on-droid. I think it would be good to reflect this in the docs.
