There isn't a way to do exactly what you want, although you can make images with the font and use them and other people will be able to see it in that font.

But you can't just use a font you have created to be the text for your site.

The only other thing I can think of is just to let other people be able to download the font off your site to view it. But it is better off just to use fonts that everyone already has.

He is using verdana, geneva, arial and helvetica. No self-made fonts there.

You can embed fonts in IE but it doesn't work with any other browser so the suggestion would be to use an image but too many images can slow your site down.

yeah but they are catched and if it's only for something like a header and you compress it it shouldn't be too bad

i wouldn't suggest the whole page text as a single image though

google and other blind users does not like images for text.
