Luciano Ferrer on 13 Oct 11"@font-face method is frees designers from the yoke of the standard palette of "web-safe" system fonts that have been used for many years. Surprisingly, however, this capability has been available in Internet Explorer since 1997. IE4 was the first browser to allow web fonts, but it did so with a proprietary format that prevented other browsers from following suit. Microsoft has since submitted its format to the W3C for consideration as a standard, but now that Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and Opera are all implemented now. So you can consider it pretty safe to use."
