I want change the default font in my AOSP GSI builds. I have added them in /extrnal like the standard Roboto font. I have added them in /framworks/base/data/data/font.xml

But they are still not in the system.img

You can use the vendor_overlay system and add the .ttf prebuilt file and copy it to $(TARGET_COPY_OUT_SYSTEM)/fonts/ using PRODUCT_COPY_FILES. You will also need to modify the fonts.xml to include the changes and build the overlay package as well.

Please check these as a reference point from AOSIP Project since the answer is a bit broad:

Sorry, doesn't work. I'm building GSI, not a rom. So vendor files will be ignored
@harvey186 The vendor_overlay is just the name of the repository here. You just have to take reference from it. You will have to define a separate .mk for it and include it for build. vendor_overlay here is just customisations on top of aosp tree, so this is nothing to do with /vendor partition as such, especially the fonts. This is a starting point for you.
Yes, I have done all this, when building, the overlays are found/proofed. But in final GSI none of the overlays/fonts are in system.img
I also have saved all in frameworks/base/packages/overlays. With same result. No fonts in system.img
Found the solution here stackoverflow.com/questions/9627806/…
