@ font-face in Firefox

A Mozilla employee, John Daggett, prepared an assembly of Firefox with support for @ font-face from the CSS3 specification (part of the “web font”). At the moment it is available only for Windows and Mac - for Linux yet. There are nuances that are described in the comment on the 70132 bug , one of which is that by default only those fonts that are located on the viewed site (domain) are downloaded, to fix this you need to turn off the gfx.downloadable_fonts.same-origin-origin option .enabled on about: config page.

For those who do not know this thing from CSS allows the developer to set on the site the font that he needs (the user’s browser must load the specified font). For example, the following code

@font-face {
font-family: Delicious;
src: url('Delicious-Roman.otf');
}

@font-face {
font-family: Delicious;
font-weight: bold;
src: url('Delicious-Bold.otf');
}
h3 { font-family: Delicious, sans-serif; }

should make the site headers (h3) look like this
')


@ font-face is supported by Safari 3.1+, IE5 (but only proprietary * .eot format, which will not be supported in other browsers). In addition, the implementation of the use of this miracle is about to be in Firefox and Opera. The test for @ font-face support, by the way, is in Acid3
