Comment (by pulkomandy):

 To be precise, what doesn't work is downloading a font and using it. If
 you have the font installed in Haiku, then it will work.
 This is a limitation of the BeAPI: BFont does not allow to load a font
 from a file, only query already installed fonts. We should fix that on
 app_server side before WebKit can make use of the feature.
 For now, as a workaround, it is suggested to install the fonts manually to
 Haiku so you can see them on websites.
