I've used .png successfully for a few images in my sphinx docs. However if you're concerned with font quality, a better option is perhaps to use a vector format like SVG instead. You can create them using a tool like Inkskape or Illustrator. I haven't tried to use .svg in sphinx myself yet but I guess it simply embeds/links it into the resulting html so a recent web browser should display them just fine.
