Abstract
Remote font management techniques are described. In one or more implementations, one or more layout tables are obtained, located remotely via a network by a computing device, that correspond to a font associated with a request to output text using the font. A layout and glyph dependencies of the text is generated by the computing device using the obtained one or more layout tables to identify glyphs that are involved in an output of the text. The identified glyphs are obtained by the computing device from a font file located remotely from the computing device via the network and the text is rendered by the computing device using the obtained glyphs.
