If anyone else is using @font-face to display fonts, I just found this great tool that will convert your ttf font into a compressed eot font.
It's compression ratio is around 50% which is great plus it's incredibly easy to use.

I just use the Microsoft WEFT Tool to generate EOT fonts. It will convert any TTF to an EOT and encode it to work on your website. Remember EOT have domain usage information so people can't steal your fonts.

I am using EOT an the font-face with http://www.defense.io and WHMCS Smarty Templates. I am using 2 fonts one script font for headings and a nice font for body.
