I feel compelled to point out that this is only part of the story. First of all, it is always possible to specify a weird font as first choice, as long as you're willing to put up with fallback to another font. Second -- and more important -- is the fact that more and more browsers support dynamic font embedding as specified in the CSS2 standard; please see http://www.alistapart.com/articles/cssatten and http://en.wikipedia.org/Dynamic_fonts . It's not universal yet, but with any luck, it will become more so. Good luck!
