From what I've seen it's usually it's mentioned in the books colophon.

> The font "Open Sans", which can be downloaded from Google fonts is published under the Apache License 2.0 [https://fonts.google.com/specimen/Open+Sans]. The license says that the font can be used in any medium and for commercial purpose, if the following requirements are met:
> [http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0]

> You must give any other recipients of the Work or Derivative Works a copy of this License; and}}
> I consider using a font in print is somewhat a redistribution.
> The question is, how can I give my recipients a copy of the license, if the font is used in a printed book?
> Do I have to provide the link to the license? Or do I have to include the license in full in book?
> Thanks for your support and help,
