I am looking for some sample Java code demonstrating how to get AJAX content displayed into a custom font using Typeface.js within a GWT app. I have tried a little bit by calling the following native function

    native void Typeface_renderDocument() /*-{ 
        $wnd._typeface_js.renderDocument();
    }-*/;
  • after having filled the relevant widget with the AJAX content, and
  • after calling the following function on the widget :

    void applyTypeface(Widget widget) {
        widget.addStyleName("typeface-js");
        widget.getElement().getStyle().setProperty("fontFamily", "Helvetiker");
        Typeface_renderDocument();
    }
    

...where Helvetiker is a custom font (actually available from Typeface.js fonts page (http://typeface.neocracy.org/fonts.html). But that didn't work.

I am looking forward to any suggestions since I am bit stuck here. Alternatively I would be interested in an example using cufón within GWT, although I am not so keen about the replacement by images that cufón does (which is the main reason why I was trying to use Typeface.js.)
