This subject is also a bit more complicated than it seems:

Our view of a PDA is that it is often connected to the network, and
you may be running the application across the net to your workstation,
so other fonts may be necessary for your big monitor.

But I guess we can arrange that when you put your PDA onto the net,
it might start using your font server as well, and thereby get to
use all the fonts you normally would.

So I think we should presume that the fonts we're willing to spend
flash space on are just those that will be used on the screen of your
PDA itself.
