Some classes (Battle Sorcerer, Warmage, etc) have a class ability where they can ignore the Arcane Spell Failure % from light armor. There's a feat called Armored Caster (I think) that lets you increase that to Medium armor also.

The other tricks to casting arcane spells in armor are:

-Mithral. Mithral armors have lowered ASF% and count as one category lower (ie, light armor instead of medium)

-Twilight/Feycraft: magical properties that decrease ASF%

This post is adding onto brian_c's...
other ways to reduce ASF:
Spellsword
Suel Arcanamach
Thistledown
Blended Quartz (biggie -20% ASF, but heavy)
and others.

But yes, to get on to the point, it's as brian_c stated.
Oh, and duskblade has the ability as well - that goes all the way to heavy.
