windows phone 7 - how to apply custom font to web browser content WP7

Question

Am developing simple app for learning webBrowser concept in Windows phone. My aim is to display the content in Telugu(Indian language) in my WP7. that web application is displaying Telugu content only

my MainPage.xaml.cs code is :

private void PhoneApplicationPage_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        webBrowser1.Navigate(new Uri("http://www.eenadu.net", UriKind.Absolute));
    }

in MainPage.xaml file

<phone:WebBrowser HorizontalAlignment="Left" Margin="0,92,0,0" Name="webBrowser1"
 VerticalAlignment="Top" Height="575" Width="468" FontFamily="Fonts/eenadu.ttf#Eenadu"  />

and i have included that .ttf file in my project under Fonts folder and assigned Build Action = 'Content'

Am able to call the URL but it displaying unreadable characters.

is there any other way to apply custom font to web browser control?

Thanks in advance

Windows phone supports web fonts. However, they cannot be embedded in the XAP. Suggested workaround is to host the fonts on a remote server and perhaps use AppCache to keep the font files locally on the device.
