Font embedding is just fine, although usually reserved these days for IE
users only -- although that's probably 85-90% of your audience. Non-IE
users get to see an alternative font or their own default.
<http://www.microsoft.com/typography/web/embedding/weft3/default.htm>
WEFT will not create the appropriate .eot file if the font does not
allow embedding.
