title: @font-face vs. cufon
body: <p>i'm working on a website and currently using the @font-face tehnique (<a href="http://paulirish.com/2009/bulletproof-font-face-implementation-syntax/" rel="noreferrer">this</a> + <a href="http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface/generator" rel="noreferrer">this</a>) to load the fonts.
  I noticed that some of the special characters are not loading properly -> ŠĐŽČĆ šđžčć.
  This is, those characters exist in the font itself.
  So, i made a test...
  I loaded up a test page with @font-face fonts and cufon fonts...
  The result is below -></p>

  <p>and of course, here is the code -></p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;html&gt;
      &lt;head&gt;
          &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="cufon-yui.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
          &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="ReprobateCRO_400.font.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
          &lt;meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-2" /&gt;
          &lt;script type="text/javascript"&gt;Cufon.set('fontFamily', 'ReprobateCRO').replace('h1');&lt;/script&gt;
          &lt;style type="text/css"&gt;
              @font-face {
                  font-family: 'ReprobateCROLASTRegular';
                  src: url('reprob_cro_last_last-webfont.eot');
                  src: local('ReprobateCROLASTRegular'),
                       url('reprob_cro_last_last-webfont.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
                       url('reprob_cro_last_last-webfont.woff') format('woff'),
                       url('reprob_cro_last_last-webfont.ttf') format('truetype'),
                       url('reprob_cro_last_last-webfont.svg#ReprobateCROLASTRegular') format('svg');
                  font-weight: normal;
                  font-style: normal;
              }
              h2{
                  font-family:ReprobateCROLASTRegular;
              }
          &lt;/style&gt;
      &lt;/head&gt;
      &lt;body&gt;
          &lt;h1&gt;--&gt; CUFON --&gt; šđžčć ŠĐŽČĆ&lt;/h1&gt;
          &lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
          &lt;h2&gt;--&gt; @FONT-FACE --&gt; šđžčć ŠĐŽČĆ&lt;/h2&gt;
      &lt;/body&gt;
  &lt;/html&gt;

  <p>So far i've tryed switching the encoding from utf8, widnwos1250, and nothing seems to work with the @font-face tehnique...</p>
  
  <p>So, i have two questions... Does anybody know what's going on here? And, if i switch to using cufon insted of @font-face - how much would that slow down the page loading? (concidering cufon uses JS to load the fonts)</p>
  
  <p>Thank you for your time!</p>
