There are a few reasons why smiley is a better solution: Webkit+Font Management software can mess up local references, like turning glyphs into A blocks.  (crbug.com/33173) On OS X, Font Management software may alter system settings to show a dialog when trying to access a local() font that's accessible outside of Library/Fonts. More detail on my bulletproof post. (crbug.com/29729) Font Explorer X is also known to mess up other stuff in Firefox: bugzil.la/531771 Although it's unlikely, you could reference a local() font which is completely different than what you think it is. (Typophile post on different fonts, same name) At the very least its a risk, and you're ceding control of the type to both the browser and host machine. This risk may not be worth the benefit of avoiding the font download. These are all pretty edge case issues, but it's worth considering. FontSquirrel has already made the smiley syntax the new default in the Generator, and you should use it going forward as well.

Our History

1997- 2001

The promoters of the company had a company selling multimedia solutions for 5 years and were distributors of Macromedia selling Flash and Authorware the 2 prime authoring toolkits for creating CDROMs and presentations. In one of the workshops we found that worldwide there was a latent demand for CDROM content and the idea of Reality was born. Reality was incorporated to provide Indian based CD content for national and international markets - probably among the first few in India. In the next 5 years we produced over 30+ titles which included titles on Temples of India, Taj Mahal, Goa, Yoga, Ayurveda, Rajasthan and Ragamala. We also did a initiative with Vigyan Ashram - Dr Kalbag renowned for his dedication to rural education for three CD's to teach assembling of computers to rural children in Hindi , Marathi and Gujarati.
