Most modern browsers support embedded fonts (even IE if you provide them in the right format):

(Other alternatives such as image replacement are also mentioned in that article)

Answer 2

You can use the CSS property font-face to define a font, then use that defined font as you would use any other font in CSS.

See http://www.alistapart.com/articles/cssatten and https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/@font-face#Browser_compatibility
