Safari is going to <a href="http://typographica.org/001112.php" target="_blank">support embedded fonts</a> soon (sites currently only render in fonts on your system in all browsers). As <a href="http://daringfireball.net/" target="_blank">John Gruber</a> says though, "The fonts you’re allowed to embed legally aren't worth using; the fonts that are worth using aren't embeddable."

Note that all websites can currently only render with fonts you already have. This is true of all browsers until Safari does this.
