If you’ve heard about the somewhat new @font-face CSS declaration, but not sure what its about or how to implement it, Dave Shea has the post for you.

Starting with @font-face over at mezzoblue goes into detail and explains the @font-face method as well as other font embedding options and gives some good links if you need to investigate further.

I had not heard anything about @font-face. It sounds like something I will have to look into further. Thanks for the heads up.

Thanks for posting this. I guess now we don’t have to worry that a particular user doesn’t have a certain font on their system. That can be such a drag when designing a site.

Most web browsers – Apple’s Safari, Mozilla Firefox, Opera, and Microsoft Internet Explorer – now ship with support for linked fonts. These are fonts that are stored on a web server and downloaded by the browser along with the HTML, CSS and images that make up the page.
