First idea was to embed some FreeType2 minimal build. They say it can be <30Kb. Then put reduced versions of ttf fonts, but they are huge for such a device. It seems, that the hardware limitations push towards generating bitmap fonts. You mentioned opentype.js project. Can it help to generate bitmaps? I've seen also a few projects on the same topic, but not web oriented, like: https://github.com/andryblack/fontbuilder https://github.com/scriptum/UBFG
I've tried to find a language that allows to write it once and use on many platforms and javascript seems to be the best because:
opentype.js seems to be a good library to generate character images from ttf files and should work on every platform
Useful for changing fonts of watch faces, notification text. Different styles and readability for different users. Can be managed independently from watchsets or integrated inside them.
