It seems that https://wicg.github.io/local-font-access/ is limited to providing information about local fonts (see https://github.com/slightlyoff/local_font_access/issues/1). Having access to font information of fonts that have been downloaded is important as well. Specific use case: a mathematical formula editor that needs detailed font information (e.g. the OpenType 'math' table) in order to do proper layout. Without access to this information for downloaded fonts, the information needs to be duplicated and provided by an sideband channel (currently I extract it from the font, turn it into a JSON object, and download the JSON with the font. This is redundant information which is already in the font). -- GitHub Notification of comment by arnog Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/520#issuecomment-634908012 using your GitHub account
