Using Typeface.js within a GWT app

I am looking for some sample Java code demonstrating how to get AJAX
content displayed into a custom font using Typeface.js within a GWT
app. I have tried a little bit by calling the following native
function

native void Typeface_renderDocument() /*-{
$wnd._typeface_js.renderDocument();
}-*/;

* after having filled the relevant widget with the AJAX content,
and
*

after calling the following function on the widget :

void applyTypeface(Widget widget) {
widget.addStyleName("typeface-js");
widget.getElement().getStyle().setProperty("fontFamily",
"Helvetiker");
Typeface_renderDocument();
}

...where Helvetiker is a custom font (actually available from
Typeface.js fonts page (http://typeface.neocracy.org/fonts.html). But
that didn't work.

I am looking forward to any suggestions since I am bit stuck here.
Alternatively I would be interested in an example using cufón within
GWT, although I am not so keen about the replacement by images that
cufón does (which is the main reason why I was trying to use
Typeface.js.)
