1. A method comprising:
- providing to a user device access to a document via a network;
receiving an indication of a first locale of the user device, the first locale being associated with a first language;
detecting an update to a language associated with the document in response to receiving an indication that the locale of the user device has changed, since the last time the user device accessed the document, from the first locale to a second locale, the second locale being different from the first locale and being associated with a second language different from the first language;
determining fonts associated with the update to the language;
comparing the fonts determined to be associated with the update to the language to a font list received from the user device to determine that at least one of the fonts associated with the update to the language is not available on the user device; and
providing the at least one of the fonts associated with the update to the language that is not available on the user device to the user device,wherein when text is added to the document by a second user device that is coupled to the user device via the network, during simultaneous editing of the document by the user device and the second user device, and the text is indicative of a font that is not available on the user device, the method further comprises providing the font to the user device.

Abstract
A server dynamically provides fonts to a user device. The user device is provided with access to a document via a network. An update to a language parameter associated with the document is detected. Fonts associated with the update to the language parameter are determined. It is determined at least one of the fonts is not available on the user device. The at least one of the fonts is provided to the user device.

4. An apparatus comprising:
-
a processor; and a memory communicatively coupled to the processor, the memory to store computer program instructions, the computer program instructions when executed on the processor cause the processor to perform operations comprising; providing to a user device access to a document via a network; receiving an indication of a first locale of the user device, the first locale being associated with a first language; detecting an update to a language associated with the document in response to receiving an indication that the locale of the user device has changed, since the last time the user device accessed the document, from the first locale to a second locale, the second locale being different from the first locale and being associated with a second language different from the first language; determining fonts associated with the update to the language; comparing the fonts determined to be associated with the update to the language to a font list received from the user device to determine that at least one of the fonts associated with the update to the language is not available on the user device; and providing the at least one of the fonts associated with the update to the language that is not available to on the user device to the user device, wherein when text is added to the document by a second user device that is coupled to the user device via the network, during simultaneous editing of the document by the user device and the second user device, and the text is indicative of a font that is not available on the user device, the operations further comprise providing the font to the user device. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6)

7. A non-transitory computer readable medium, which, when executed on a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
-
receiving a first indication of a first locale of a user device, the first locale being associated with a first language; receiving a second indication of a second locale of the user device; detecting an update to a language associated with a document in response to the receiving the second indication, the second indication indicating that the locale of the user device has changed, since the last time the user device accessed the document, from the first locale to the second locale, the second locale being different from the first locale and being associated with a second language different from the first language; determining new fonts associated with the update to the language; comparing the fonts determined to be associated with the update to the language to a font list received from the user device to determine that at least one of the new fonts associated with the update to the language is not available on the user device; and providing the at least one of the new fonts associated with the update to the language that is not available on the user device to the user device, wherein when text is added to the document by a second user device that is coupled to the user device via a network, during simultaneous editing of the document by the user device and the second user device, and the text is indicative of a font that is not available on the user device, the operations further comprise providing the font to the user device. - View Dependent Claims (8)
