Embedding Fonts
"Embedding Fonts" might not be the right term, but I've seen this before and heard of it being used before but this is my scenario:
I want to use a font as text on my site. However, its not a font that most computers come with. Its a freeware font that I picked up along the way and would rather not create graphics to use it on the site. How do you go about using a font on your site without forcing people to download it? I know you upload it to the server, but how to you call to it so people can see it without downloading it?

As Tomtester says, WEFT is IE only and seldom seen.
There is also the option to create an image from a font using PHP and the GD-libs, but that's best if you don't have lots of text to produce. There's an old article on it at A List Apart.
