Change subject: Reverse the font stack with Autonym font ...................................................................... Reverse the font stack with Autonym font All browsers try 'Autonym' first and then fallback font if the font stack is 'Autonym', sans-serif But they differ in the way they interpret a font stack like sans-serif, 'Autonym' * Chrome and IE uses generic families at the end no matter whether it is given at the beginning of font stack. So 'Autonym' font will be downloaded always. But that is only about download. While rendering, Chrome uses system fonts first and then Autonym font. But experiments shows that it does not resolve the fallback chain, just uses one font for sans-serif and uses 'Autonym' font as second font. So usually Latin glyphs get rendered from system fonts and non-latin fonts rendered from Autonym font. * FF also downloads Autonym font always. But while rendering it resolves the full fallback chain. Non-latin text also get rendered using system font and Autonym font is used only when system does not have font. So this patch does not make any difference for font download. But we improve the bad rendering of webfonts in old Windows browsers. Since they start using system font for latin languages, at least they look better.
