[webkit-qt] QtWebKit + Qt 4.8.5 embedded + fonts

[Massimo Callegari]

Thanks for the hint Adam.
I wasn't actually sure about that site. I think the only reliable way to get the installed font list is through Flash or Java.

I'll have a look into font substitution rules. If in case you've got a quick code snippet to share I would be thankful. :)

Cheers,
Massimo
