Emmebbing Fonts into my website

[SterlingF]

OK so I have a website that I've put a lot of work into so that it looks just the way I want it to. But when I go to a friends house and open my URL it looks like crap since it is substituting system fonts. My question is how do I embedd the correct fonts into the site so that it looks correct when downloading into a browser?

you can use this:
http://www.microsoft.com/typography/web/embedding/weft/
IMHO it's a pretty good trick (for free) it gets some poo-pooery for spotty
support but it's about the only option. I've used it here:
http://nedp.net/newh/xmas
your other option is to either specify the font differently or come up with
a suitable substitute and use images of the font/ words where necessary.
that's about it. you're really at the mercy of the browser/ system in a lot
of ways.

You could use WEFT but some of us wouldn't download your files just so it'll
look *pretty*. Security issues and all that.
