How is text displayed while the browser is still loading the font file?

0

Browser behavior varies depending on the type of browser. Some will only display the text after the font file is loaded, others will use the fallback font from the font stack and then refresh the page when the font is available. The latter behavior is generally referred to as the “flash of unstyled text.” For browser details, see the Technical Considerations page. For greater control over how browsers behave while the font is still loading, use the WebFont Loader.
