    ^ some text size/font combinations lead to completely illegible text.

    Using some MS proprietary css filters on your page can switch cleartype rendering off, making the legibility problem even worse.

    Poor/weird font hinting sometimes changes the character of a typeface. If you've got approval on design proofs from Photoshop, your type in the live website may be way off.

    IMO cufon gives more accurate results for critical applications, though it does not zoom well (typekit/@font-face does).
