I like that idea and the way it was implemented. It reduces a font to its design and then executes the design, an excellent compression technique. I think there are plenty more applications to that idea. For example, in stead of transferring bitmaps showing pictures pixel by pixel, describe the picture using vector graphics (coordinates) or even a more basic description of those vectors.
