I'm quite sure where that sentiment came from, but speaking as a web  
developer I think it's perfectly reasonable to be required to process  
a font file before using it on the web. It's exactly what we have to  
do with video and images (no one displays RAW photos or full  
resolution jpgs in websites). So any web developers who say that  
processing fonts before using them on the web is an unnecessary burden  
are not really thinking through their normal workflow.
