I wonder if you can load a font from base64 string like you can with images. Then, one may write a pure js library which generates such font from a set of rules on the fly. Catered to a specific use case.

That would be:

  @font-face {
      font-family: 'foo';
      src: url(data:application/x-font-woff;charset=utf-8;base64,d09GRgABAAAAAGy …)
  }

A minor detail, but the MIME type should be `font/woff` (or `font/woff2` if appropriate), not the nonstandard `application/x-...`.

You can load a font that way on the web, I believe.
