Bug 1028497 introduces CSS font loading API into firefox. The PDF.js can use it in the generic viewer after https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/pull/5366. Looks like it's using memory better: does not create base64 string and DOM elements to hold that.

Currently m-c PDF Viewer is using data-URI as the only method for font-face registration: https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/blob/master/src/display/font_loader.js#L283. We shall probably change that.
