Controlling FOIT with JS embed

Hi,

I'm trying to understand how to control the Flash of Invisible Text that happens with my Typekit implementation.

On this page, it says that dynamic implementations should default to showing the fallback font, which does happen for a second, but then everything goes invisible for a period before finally displaying with the correct fonts. https://helpx.adobe.com/uk/fonts/using/font-events.html#UsingfonteventssimulatingtheflashofinvisibletextFOITfordynamicprojects​

It seems like the `font-display` value for the font faces is set to "auto" or "swap", where I'd like it to be set to "fallback". Is there any way to achieve this?
