This is excellent.  I have it working on my site for one page..  See
http://mindprod.com/jgloss/typekit.html

It is reasonably priced, and very easy to set up.  All you have to do
is add two lines of JavaScript to the page.   I am not a big fan of
JavaScript, but that is pretty easy compared with what hoops they
might have made you jump through.

After that it is just as though everybody had the fonts you signed up
for pre-installed.

The thing that makes this work is they serve the fonts. It gets all
the digital rights stuff out of your hair.

It does not do applets or applications and they make that explicit.

For me, the appeal of computer programming is that
even though I am quite a klutz,
I can still produce something, in a sense
perfect, because the computer gives me as many
chances as I please to get it right.
