How to install fonts used only by some html code?

'Intermediate Hindi Reader' is a series of html files which use 2 custom fonts, jaipur.ttf and jaipurx.ttf. For PC, you have to install them, no problem. But I want to use this on my Samsung Galaxy tab. I've searched the web and have not found satisfactory explanation of how to install fonts on an Android device.

I do not think these are unicode fonts; when you display the pages on a Windows PC before installing the fonts, they display as gibberish. I believe the same thing would happen on the Android but have not tried it yet.

Other hindi sites display correctly for example BBC hindi, aaj tak, etc.

Samsung GT-P3113, Android version 4.0.4
