Adding Open-Dyslexic Font

A forum I regularly visit (not SMF based) recently installed an option where if one goes to their profile, and select 'yes' to being Dyslexic, it will change the font on the forum to be Open-Dyslexic.

"OpenDyslexic is a new open sourced font created to increase readability for readers with dyslexia. The typeface includes regular, bold, italic and bold-italic styles. It is being updated continually and improved based on input from dyslexic users. There are no restrictions on using OpenDyslexic outside of attribution."

I was wondering if anyone knew how to make such an option available on SMF. I have quite a few users on my site that would greatly appreciate such a font.

Thank you.

You could do it with a theme variant. Just have a mini stylesheet for the variant that changes the font. That would be the easiest way of doing it, but it would rely on people having the font installed on their box.
