There was a technology, i dont rememeber the name exactly, but I have seen
some folks use it in my previous office.
You can have server side fonts which load along with the web-page. It will
basically use some known font on ur machine like Arial etc. SO, if you will
view source the web page, the font would be in arial ( the font which it
needs to render its language on ur browser), but it would be all junk
characters.
let me give u two sites, but of course they are not hindi sites, but Tamil.

http://www.kamakoti.org/tamil/
you dont have to download any font.
if you are a krishna bhakt, and want me to translate those bhajans for you,
then like a true krishna, i would want ur daughters hand in marriage only.
YOu can keep ur kingdom ;-)
the english version is not very correct.
