Android and iOS embedded fonts used in native browser control.

[Paul Maguire]

Hey Ralph. 

I prepped some bits yesterday but haven't filed anything (never actually filed a LC bug report). I have had no time at all in past 2 days - sorry. If you are up for it, please use my example by all means. Thanks again for your help on this. 

Btw in my Android porting I'm coming across a lot of issues, some if which I have resolved - I'm going to post a list of issues and workarounds soon for others like me in the future. 

Kind regards,  Paul.
