Method to create local font server so that browser gets fonts from locally installed fonts.

Fedora provides lots of fonts, and I have lots of them installed.  I
would like the browser to use them instead of going out on the web to
find fonts for pages it is rendering.  A nice to have feature would be a
mapping of common fonts to substitute fonts if they aren't available.
For instance, if a web page calls for Times-Roman, and I don't have that
installed, the server substitutes a reasonable alternative.  This would
be mapped to things like fonts.googleapis.com so that I would still get
a reasonable font when the browser wants to call there, but gets the
local font server instead.

Is there such a thing already in Fedora?  If there isn't, would it be
easy to create such a thing with existing tools?

As an alternative, could I compile the local fonts into firefox so that
they are directly available?
