Various embodiments disclose a computer-implemented method that includes receiving, subsequent to a first font file being stored in read-only memory, a first font patch file for storage in read-write memory, where each of the first font file and the first font patch file is associated with a first font and includes a different set of glyphs used to render characters for display, and a first set of glyphs included in the first font file is static, determining that a first text string includes a first set of characters to be rendered, retrieving, from at least one of the first font file and the first font patch file depending on whether a first glyph is included in the first set of glyphs, the first glyph corresponding to a first character included in the first set of characters, and rendering a portion of the first text string using the first glyph.

Techniques for text rendering using font patching

Methods and systems for controlling a networked display via a client device are provided. The client device and the networked display are connected by a network. A session is initiated between the client device and the networked display, and a remote user interface is transmitted from the networked display to the client device. Interactivity with the remote user interface is detected at the client device, and input data is transmitted from the client device to the networked display based on the interactivity with the remote user interface. The input data is interpreted at the networked display so as to cause a change in a state of an application being executed by the networked display. And the remote user interface is updated based on the changed state of the application executed by the networked display.
