What Jefferey has mentioned in the post is not only very true but at the same time a drawback in the latest craze of using “real” fonts.
However, the font rendering of even native fonts is pathetic on many instances on IE. So it might as well be a better idea for us designers to get back to the basics of typography before we select our “real” and imaginative fonts. True typefaces are just that.
