Okay, I just did my first “cufón vs. @font-face” comparison and cufón ended up looking way better. These tests are from my online resume where I have been using cufón for quite some time to display the headers in the Kon Tiki Kona font (you won’t be able to tell the difference unless you are viewing this article on its own; if you view it from the front page of the blog both images will appear squished):
@font-face Test
cufón Test
Conclusion
Unless I can find a way to get lettering displayed with the CSS @font-face
property to turn up clearer I may be forced to stick with cufón for now.
