So are you saying that, in theory, we ought to be able to store our font files
either
in directory, /fonts in internal mem and reference them as
@font-face {font-family: serif; ... ... src: url(res:///mnt/sdcard/fonts/xxx.ttf);}
or
in directory, /fonts on the external SD card and reference them as
@font-face {font-family: serif; ... ... src: url(res:///mnt/extsd/fonts/xxx.ttf);}
But that in practice it doesn't work? Or have I misunderstood what you've said?
