Hello:

I have heard from a source that MS has a free (oxymoron: free from 
Micro$oft) add-on that lets you embed code into the HTML that 
downloads a particular font of your choice. This would allow you to 
use any font, regardless of its availability on the viewers system. It 
also doesn't remain on the viewers machine once the web page or 
browser is closed. 

Has anyone used or even heard of this code, or is this one of those 
"pie-in-the-sky" wishful things that circulate? If it's real, where 
would one find this animal, and is this another IE only thing or did 
MS actually make something that works with other software?

Just curious!
