You can trace it, I guess...

What if you convert it to bitmap, instead of shipping a TTF/WOFF/etc? Does it still counts as shipping the font... or not?

And if you generate a set of bitmaps/sprites of individual glyphs from the font (e.g. to use as a bitmap font in a game), is that different to shipping an image with more specific uses of the font baked in, e.g. a logo/title image?

No, because a font is licensed as a computer program that generates those glyphs. The glyphs themselves aren’t copyrightable.
