Kristian,
I have a few IPA fonts! I got a bunch from the SIL site (they're called SIL
Sophia, Manuscript and Doulos -- Doulos is based on Times Roman while Sophia
is similar to Arial; Manuscript is Courier. So you'd prefer Doulos if you
want serifs. These are also traditional 8-bit fonts, no Unicode here. Just
specify in your HTML document the name of the font you're using, and you're
in business.
These you can download from SIL's site; just follow the correct links. Or I
can e-mail them to you. Also, I got a font called IPAPhon, which is based
on Book Antiqua/Palatino (my personal favorite font). Strange thing about
it is, you can make it bold or italic, but bold *and* italic results in a
bunch of special diacritics and rare symbols. I forgot where I got this
font, but I bet it's available from Dr. Berlin's Font Archive.
Of course SIL's website is: http://www.sil.org
And Dr. Berlin:
http://www.dtcc.edu/~berlin/fonts.html
Again, I'll e-mail them if you have any trouble downloading.
Danny
