RENDERING WEB PAGE TEXT IN A NON-NATIVE FONT
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- determining a subset of characters defined in a particular font that are to be rendered on a web page in the particular font;
obtaining, from a remote resource, font information for the particular font for just the subset of characters and not for characters defined in the particular font that are not in the subset; and
based on the obtained font information, causing each character in the subset to be rendered on the web page in the particular font;
wherein the method is performed by a computing device.

Abstract
Techniques are described herein for causing a browser to render text of a web page in a non-native font that do not require the browser to obtain font rendering information for characters defined in the non-native font that are not rendered on the web page in the non-native font. According to one embodiment, for example, a subset of the characters defined in a non-native font that are to be rendered on a web page in the non-native font is determined. Font rendering information is obtained from a remote resource for just the subset of characters and not for characters defined in the non-native font that are not in the subset. The font rendering information obtained for the subset is used to render each character in the subset on the web page in the non-native font.

22. A computing device comprising:
-
first logic for determining a subset of characters defined in a particular font that are to be rendered on a web page in the particular font; second logic operatively coupled to the first logic for obtaining, from a remote resource, font information for the particular font for just the subset of characters and not for characters defined in the particular font that are not in the subset; and third logic operatively coupled to the first and second logic for causing, based on the obtained font information, each character in the subset to be rendered on the web page in the particular font. - View Dependent Claims (23)
