OK, but no browser can determine what a font will look like exactly on the screen. For instance, my linux system might not have a true type font server or enabled X server, and my fonts will look jaggy. Another system need not even have the the right font. This is all notwithstanding each system interpreting the font tag the same way. Other visual things could be detailed.
