See the TestPlan for details.

Possible Risks

(Known bugs, not-yet-implemented features, questions)

  • Embedded OpenType fonts are not displayed (at least on Mac)
  • The layout after the new fonts load seems to be based on the old layout, as is mentioned in bug 441473 #33
  • Firefox crashes when you leave the page before the font download finishes.
  • Unknown gryph change happens to some Japanese characters when font (which does not contain Japanese characters) is downloaded and rendered.
    • I think it shouldn't change.
    • Now filed as bug 451426
    • It only happens when the file is encoded in Japanese encoding (Shift_JIS, EUC-jp). It doesn't happen if the file is encoded in UTF-8.
  • When it fails to download the font from every URI written in src, it just doesn't display anything ... shouldn't it display in default font?
  • Also, when the url written in src did exist but was not in a proper format, it displays nothing. Even if they had other candidates after that url, those candidates are ignored.
  • How about Datafork TrueType fonts? How about bitmap fonts?
