title: Font face usage in mobile native application
body: <pre><code>@font-face {
    font-family: "Frodo Simplified Italic";
    src: url("../resources/FrodoSimplified_It.ttf");
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>A HTML5 application that loads in an iframe of a webview uses the above CSS statement. The fonts specified in the statement are made available in the application. I mean the ttf file is stored under the resources of the application. For example, in iOS it would be stored in the Resources folder of the application XCode project.</p>
  
  <p>Now, will the <code>src</code> attribute request the server to fetch the fonts ttf file, even if it was made available to the app locally or will it use the local fonts?</p>
  
  <p>I need the PhoneGap application to use the local ttf files on iOS and Android platforms.</p>
