I thought bitmap fonts were not copyrightable? Then you can’t put conditions on it. Or at least not enforce them.

What made you think that? Not being snarky - just something I haven't come across
That bitmap fonts are not covered by copyright is something I have often seen stated, and the above reference seems to back it up; since bitmap fonts are not rendered from curves and vectors, there is no underlying putative “software” to claim copyright on.
A bitmap font could still theoretically be covered by trademark or possibly a design pattern, but (IIUC) those are things that have to be applied for, unlike copyright which normally covers a work automatically.
