Part of the Internet technologies glossary:

Dynamic fonts are a feature of Netscape's Communicator suite of products that enables a Web page designer to specify or create a special font style for a Web page or site. A font file (which describes how to display a particular set of font images) is downloaded as a plug-in from the Web server along with the first page that uses it. Netscape's viewing support uses TrueDoc Technology from Bitstream.
