Typography.Guru25 Oct 2008

The latest beta and the nightly builds of Firefox 3.1 now support webfonts.

BTW: The final release will support Access Control Headers, which can be used to control from which domains the font can be accessed - a kind of server-side URL-binding.

FYI to anyone thinking about installing this beta: I’ve been using it for a few days now and it’s not remotely stable. Only install it if you don’t mind it crashing a few times every hour.

Are ACH some kind of industry standard, or only a Mozilla proposal? Are ACH going to be implemented in Safari as well at some time?
