But I think for many people @font-face will be a great enabler: they will have a much nicer solution for publishing content on the web (or platforms using web-technologies) via open standards and have to worry about pictures and problematic encodings to represent text.
There will still be lots of problems for quite a while - e.g. there are fonts that work on the PC and Linux versions of Firefox, but not on the Mac version; the support for OpenType is very different on PC & Mac, which is a real issue for non-Latin scripts.
