What are cons to use custom fonts techniques compare to web safe fonts?
The con is simply that your page will not look the same to anyone who doesn’t have your custom fonts. More info here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_typography#Web-safe_fonts If you use Font-Face to use custom fonts in the user’s browser, you will add overhead in the form of additional web traffic to get the fonts downloaded to the user’s browser. However, once the fonts are downloaded to the browser, they are cached so they don’t have to be downloaded again.
