Microsoft sponsors new Web font standard

The ability for web designers to use rich typography in their designs has taken a small step towards becoming a reality.
In something of a surprise move the software company is backing a newer effort at the World Wide Web Consortium to standardize Web-based fonts with technology called the Web Open Font Format (WOFF).
Let’s hope we see this new standard supported by all of the major browser manufacturers in the very near future.
