So basically for flash we've got following options:
** create swf fonts from the ttf fonts and rewrite the mustella tests to
use the swf fonts
** write an own transcoder from ttf to swf
For html we don't need anything like that because it already supports a
bunch off font format like ttf, svg.

Did I got that correct?
