Downloading font automatically

Is it possible to download a font from the server to clients fonts folder automatically (without user’s intervention) before loading/displaying a page? If so, how?

PLS HELP. THIS IS URGENT. DON’T WANT TO USE MICROSOFT’S WEFT.

@CharlesDec 10.2004 — I'm afraid your only solution - this side of images - is WEFT.

@Willy_DuittDec 11.2004 — If I configured my pc not to download fonts what makes you think you have the right to force a font download on me?? And no, you can not bypass my security settings... That is what they are there for... To prevent people like you installing something I do not want on my machine...

91% of users curently use MSIE but only 90% of users currently use JavaScript. WEFT has better support than JavaScript.

@ZuluauthorDec 11.2004 — what if the 10% should not be deprived? What if the unicode cannot be applied for this native script (i.e. Bengali - though it is the 5th most widely used language in the world)?
