Many sites use Flash to embed fonts as well.

  I really haven't seen that. Font solutions such as Google Font Directory (http://code.google.com/webfonts http://code.google.com/webfonts), or Typekit (http://typekit.com/ http://typekit.com/) are already better solutions compared to replacing text with flash.

    It's not something that sticks out like a Flash video, so it's easy to miss. I use ClickToFlash so it sticks out for me. I agree that those new font solutions are nice, but they're also just that, new.

      ClickToFlash has a "Text Replacement" setting in its preferences to automatically load Flash used for fonts.

        Or even better, it lets you suppress sIFR. Note to web developers: if you need to enable custom fonts on your website, nowadays there exists better non-flash alternatives to sIFR, e.g. Cufón and Typekit.
