You really have 4 options:
1) Select a different, more available font.
2) Use that font, and then have it go to a more standard one if that one
isn't available. (like font-family: rockwell, arial, serif)
3) Make an image with the header
4) Embed the font. WARNING: This is almost certainly copyright infringement.
I really recommend selecting a different, more standard font. If that
isn't an option, I would just go with option 2. Use Rockwell, but have a
more standard font list after Rockwell. If I remember correctly, I think
Rockwell is similar to Impact, which is more standard.
You could make an image out of it, but that is kind of a waste and then
it wouldn't be selectable as text, which is a hassle. If you do this,
make sure you have an alt tag that says the same text.

Hi,
I got a font problem: for a site I'm working on I'd like to use
rockwell.ttf, in the h1 tag.
Rockwell isn't a standard font, but every windows user has them, and
it is also available for Mac. But I don't know if this font is in the
Mac fontbook. And I'm pretty sure *nix users don't have it at all.
Is it a better solution to use a gif instead? (Most of the visitors
are Windows users.)
Thanks for any advice,
