Explainer https://garretrieger.github.io/ift-demo Specification https://www.w3.org/TR/IFT Summary Incremental font transfer enables the browser to download only the specific portions of a web font needed to render the text on a page. This reduces bandwidth usage and improves page load times for sites using large fonts. This allows developers to optimize web performance without needing to generate and manage font subsets. Blink component Blink>WebFonts Web Feature ID Missing feature Motivation Web fonts for languages with large character sets—such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean (CJK)—often exceed several megabytes in size. Downloading these massive files significantly delays text rendering, consumes excessive bandwidth, and degrades the user experience. The current alternative to incremental font transfer is unicode-range based subsetting. From our demo, incremental font transfer sees typical savings of 50% or more compared to the subsetting approach. fonts.google.com serves a significant amount of web fonts and will be ready to support the best font delivery option Initial public proposal https://www.w3.org/TR/IFT/ Goals for experimentation None Requires code in //chrome?
