Embedded fonts in browsers - progress

[murraybiscuit]

first were the issues with competing formats, then compressed formats, then rights issues, but there's hope for @font-face in css

i found a really cool site that gives you free fonts, in necessary formats (ttf/eot/woff/svg/otf), with the code. it actually works on lots of browsers (safari, chrome, ie 6-8, ff 3.6). and the fonts don't suck.

hopefully sifr will be a thing of the past soon. i might actually implement some of these fonts on my next site.

you can even generate your own:

windows still has issues with antialiasing, but we'll get there
