What is @font-face?

The @font-face rule is a W3C standard allowing authors to specify online fonts for displaying text on their webpages.

Example:
  @font-face {
    font-family: "Example Font";
    src: url("http://www.example.com/fonts/example");
}
  h1 {
    font-family: "Example Font", sans-serif;
}

For more information see the W3C article on the @font-face rule.
