So how is the user supposed to see it?

 

Is there any solution...

 

Apart from creating an image using your font and displaying it to the user, I can't see any.

You can do it with CSS but the user has to has a browser that has a CSS3 enabled browser with font support like "chrome 4.0.249.43"

 

next you would do this (CSS):

 

/* Place at the top of the css file */
@font-face { 
font-family:'arista'; 
src: url('http://www.nebala.com/display/arista.ttf'); /* Link to the font file */
}
body{
font-family:'arista', 'verdana', 'times';
}

 

The following link only works with browsers with font support

Example (the green text at the top):
