From the user's side, this is covered in RFE 863323 "FONTS: embedded SVG font support"
thanks
Now... for some cases you might want a document to render properly even if the end users don't have the same font installed, but not need further editing. Sometimes getting the text selected and converting to path is a viable option.
That's precisely the goal of embedded fonts... play on places where the user doesn't have the fonts.
In our efforts for mathematics on the web, we have been writing a dvi to svg converter (look for dvi2svg) which works fine: it provides the TeX layout quality (still unbeated) with, precisely, a complete font predictability. Embedded fonts seem, however, to be almost only solved by the Adobe plugin.
The latter point (font predictability) is a weakness of the current MathML efforts... therefore, dvi2svg has some hopes... but we're stepping on the plugin quality thus far...
