That particular Promise object will, but a new Promise object is created and exposed through FontFaceSet.ready when a loading starts again (after a period of loading being complete). At any point, if you write document.fonts.ready.then(…) you’ll be guaranteed to have your callback invoked either immediately, if there are no loads happening currently, or when the current loads complete. Storing away the document.fonts.ready Promise to call then() on at a later point wouldn’t be useful. -- Cameron McCormack ≝ http://mcc.id.au/
