Times was not bad but narrower than Georgia (I didn't seriously test it cross-platform though). I considered system font stacks that are (approximately) cross-platform (there aren't many serif ones), and Georgia-resembling fonts with an open license (so subsetting is legally OK): For example So from what font to take the digits? You should also consider what happens on systems that don't have Georgia (android and many linuxes) and/or don't have your replacement font (not a problem if it's a webfont).

Looks fine on platforms lacking Georgia (android, ubuntu).ДЄnd now kerning looks OK everywhere! (No idea why kerning is better - is it a different code path or just slightly different font - perhaps Font Squirrel did some magic?) => Replaced digits everywhere except IE8 (I only used WOFF format which is IE9+, probably could work with the right EOT incantation) Дidn't inhibit Georgia for other characters anywhere

Note especially '0th' and '4rd' on the italic lines.ДЄ webfont subsetted to include only the characters 0-9. (this is Bitstream Charter, Chrome on Ubuntu)

I also tried a 'double sandwitch' of Georgia without digits, only digits, full Georgia - I hoped this will make Firefox at least use Georgia for everything - but it failed in weird ways.ДЄlso, I noticed that digit-letter kerning was too tight with most fonts and platforms, e.g.: What's worse is Firefox which ignored unicode-range but didn't invalidate the whole resulting in everything using the font I wanted only for digits. IE8 doesn't support it and shows only Georgia that's OK. Unfortunately I never got it to work cross-browser.

(top is Palatino/Palladio digits, Georgia bottom is pure Georgia) Clean and effecient - the replacement font can reference system fonts or webfonts (which some browsers will skip loading if no characters use them). There are 2 easy ways to do this in a with limited unicode-range. See for all my experiments (most screenshots are Chrome on Ubuntu with Georgia installed, look for crossbrowsertesting links for cross-platform screenshots) You can test the combo at (feel free to edit). I ended up using Charter digits, as a webfont. I also wanted this and decided to use Georgia for most chars but take digits from another font.
