After nearly two decades of cursing browsers, designers can finally get the fonts they want to work reliably on the web without using Flash. Web fonts make it possible to package and deliver specific fonts rather than guessing what might be on users' computers and hoping that fallbacks don't look too dreadful.
Web fonts have been a long time coming, but the last two years have seen an explosion of both browser support and font providers eager to sell their fonts over the Web. Whether you're a traditional graphic designer, web designer, or front-end engineer, you'll find the pieces here to make web fonts work for you - reliably, conveniently, and superbly.
