Subject: WebFonts in Navigator 6
Date: Wed, 4 Oct 2000 17:48:35 +0200
From: Michael Jansson <mjan@borware.com>
You may recall my previous message regarding supporting OpenType WebFonts in
Navigator!? I hope that you still work on font stuff, or that you
may be able to forward this message to someone that do. I'd appreciate your
help!
The company I am running is currently working on a product known as
FAIRY(http://www.borware.com/apps/fairy/readme.html) which support
"Server Gated WebFonts". It includes support for OpenType WebFonts for Netscape
4.x, through a plug-in (we never did find any documentation
for 4.x WebFonts).
We would like to support 6.x as well, but are having some problems getting it to
work. It seems that Milestone 17 of Mozilla is neither expecting
nor reacting to the event generated when new fonts are installed on Windows (the
WM_FONTCHANGE message).
To illustrate this problem, simply create a web page that uses a font which is
not installed, then install the font while viewing the page in Mozilla.
Another popular browser do handle this scenario.
Would it be possible for Mozilla to redo its layout when receiving the
WM_FONTCHANGE message? If not, then would you know if there is any
way a plug-in can force Mozilla to redo the page layout?

This is definitely not a duplicate of bug 91250. Whoever marked it as such
almost surely made an error. This bug should be re-opened or re-resolved.

Keith, I am re-resolving this bug as a duplicate of bug 52746. I am pretty sure this is the correct thing to do.

Argh... I just noticed the dependency on bug 70132. I'm going to resolve it as a duplicate of bug 70132 then.
No longer blocks: 70132
