Webfont Loader

This module uses the Webfont Loader Library, developed by Google and Typekit, to:

• Utilize fonts available in the Google Font Directory.
• Utilize a preset created on typekit.
• Utilize a preset created on fontdeck
• Utilize preset font packages created on fontslive
• Utilize a preset created on fonts.com
• Utilize your own custom fonts.
• Allow for a consistent way to display your or other linked font(s) across the various browsers that support @font-face

And power your site with various fonts presets that a site administrator could choose from.

Aside from the modules mentioned below, there is a font rendering comparison page up at http://groups.drupal.org/node/71453 (strongly recommended to help with choosing what may best work for you).

• @font-your-face is another means to apply web fonts from a variety of sources (and it also uses font-face for font definition). What differentiates font-your-face from google webfont loader is that font-your-face provides an interface to manage usage of fonts from many existing font sources right from your drupal installation (through a wonderful user interface) while webfont loader requires a bit more work on the end of the development team to provide fonts for the site editor to choose. font-your-face is not javascript state driven, which means that user experience on how the fonts load across the various browsers will not be the same. Another excellently written and supported project. Update: This module now works with @font-your-face for most font providers so you can have a look/feel that is consistent across browsers while still having the ease/use of font-your-face.
• Dynamic Font Rendering applies uploaded fonts via an input filter.custom fonts

Credit

I would like to thank Johan Mattson for designing Beteckna, a wonderful GPL font that I have been able to include with the release of this module. I would also like to thank Garrick Van Buren for providing me with some guidance on packaging the font and the Drupal.org infrastructure team for providing the green light to package this module with the aforementioned font (see #862192: Allowed to include GPL font with contrib module?).
