ABSTRACT:
Various embodiments of a system and method for independent font substitution of string characters are described. The system and method for independent font substitution may include a font substitution component configured to receive a descriptor item that may include a text string that includes multiple characters, metrics associated with characters of the text string, and/or a preferred font for one or more of the characters. For a particular character, if the preferred font is available, the font substitution component may use a glyph from the preferred font to render a particular character. In other cases, if a font of the set of safe fonts includes a glyph that matches the particular character, the font substitution component may use that glyph to resolve the particular character. The font substitution component may generate a resolved text string includes such glyphs and scale the size of the glyphs according to the aforementioned metrics.
