Hi Richmond,
It is part of Revolution as in "included with" and it has always been
an external. Although I agree that the documentation is slightly
confusing, I believe the usage of the font external should be clear to
a veteran like you.
When documentation changes with a new release of Revolution, I'd
consider the old documentation to have become obsolete.
There have been a few peculiarities, particularly with older versions
of the external. What problem are you trying to solve?
