> Or, hypothetically, the UA synthetically slant the Regular from that family (if present) to the specified angle. In practice, though, platforms won't synthesize oblique to arbitrary angles, but will synthesize to some specific angle.
Hypothetically? No, that's more than hypothetical: that's exactly what Firefox does (as of release 62, currently in beta). So using a family that has no static oblique or italic face, an example like
data:text/html,<div style="font:50px impact;font-style:oblique 10deg">one <span style="font-style:oblique 20deg">two <span style="font-style:oblique 30deg">three
will slant the three words by successively larger angles. And
data:text/html,<div style="font:50px impact;font-style:oblique -20deg">reverse
will render with a left-leaning slant, exactly as the author requested.
