Regarding the complaints on both kerning and blurriness that you're getting in the thread: the original font likely included a ton of kerning and hinting info, but it might've been all stripped when going through the conversion process. Seeing as character metrics should be practically identical to the original, you might want to copy that info into your result font—if that's possible (I think it should be, but dunno about tool support).

However, there will probably still be a problem if the intended font height doesn't match the actual one in the user's browser—and you can't control that with accuracy to a pixel (CSS pixels aren't screen pixels).
