How do I use ccs to use @font-face for 200+ fonts and provide fast experience for user browsing?

Looking to add over 200+ fonts to a web page as a choice for user to choice a font on a single page.

As it takes a while to load using @font-face available in html 5, are there any ways to do quicker?
and for multiple visits by same user is it possible to save them on user machine
 or at least in session so doesn't have to load all 200 +fonts on each new page view?

please provide an "A" - I do appreciate the time and expertise of supplying answers.

The reason why a C grade was used, they were both incomplete solutions as if implemented the functionality would have changed.

Using bmp/png images of each font allows all 200+ fonts to be represented on the page.
The answer is a mixture of Ajax, diving the fonts into categories (so not all required at once) and finally when all fonts are required use a bm/jpg of the image - which can be displayed if the font is not on the user machine
