You’d need to download it to a file, then load it as an Android typeface using Typeface.createFromFile(), and then wrap that up for Compose https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/androidx/compose/ui/text/font/package-summary#typeface_1

I would like to load font on the fly during runtime, just like we lazy load image from http url and display.

Well you'll have to write it yourself, Compose doesn’t do this for you

I think I saw api to load font from bytes. But may be it was in desktop variant of compose
