Forget about default textbox restrictions, you can create sprites atop of the textbox

The spritefont will take 4096*4096*4= 67108864 bytes = 67 Mb of image memory during gameplay..

Sounds like a lot to me..

Some devices only support a max texture size of 2048 (e.g. 1st gen Nexus 7). On those devices, the image will fail to display. That's why the editor recommends a maximum image size of 2048x2048.

Does using local webfonts have any disadvantage in mobile? Chinese characters are a lot and i cant use a small spritefont to my purposes.
