although I realise its a different issue to the
installing fonts thread just caught the last line of
Mike's post that's there's no alternative to arial et
al yet - what about downloadable fonts - stored in
pfr's?

I have to say I have never used them but they would
seem to be the ideal solution if you're desperate to
use a font that isn't common. you can specify domain
from which they can be served by pages and the files
are not that big.ok you need to set up your server to
allow this but its about 30 seconds work. 

(Assuming you have control over your own server i
guess - surely ISP's would have some fonts set up you
can access tho...dunno)

I would be interested to hear from someone who does
use embedded fonts regularly and knows the
problems/limitations.

thanks
