Slides on Slideshare

Based on what was presented at Drupal Design Camp LA, I want to discuss pros/cons of the various methods of adding custom typography into a website (and what is available on Drupal.org to help with the method you choose).

I will try and discuss/compare the various modules listed below. There are many other methods but these are the most well known (and used methods) in the community.

Image Based Text Replacement
Cufon
Using font-face
Google Font Directory
Google Webfont Loader
font-your-face

While I will try and come prepared with slides on things I have learned, I was thinking this could be in a Bird of a Feather (BOF) format so everyone can share their experiences. Come with hints/tips and findings, as well as questions.

Thank you for coming

I am sorry I did not post my slides sooner but you can access the slides to my presentation at http://www.slideshare.net/BTMash/drupal-camp-la-2011-typography-modules-…. I also did a screencast of the session at home since Camtasia crashed and it should be up in the next day or two.
