cataract777 Posted June 26, 2009 Share Posted June 26, 2009 I know you usually must use common fonts on your web pages and such so people can access the font on their computer because if you use a font that's not as popular or not installed on a computer unless someone installs it, it will show up as common. I notice websites use fonts that no one has on their computer or are not "common fonts", so how can I view it on my computer if I was to use a font like that it won't show up on anyone elses? Sorry if this is confusing, hope you get it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ingolme Posted June 27, 2009 Share Posted June 27, 2009 When displaying a font with CSS, you can list multiple fonts, and you always must end it with a generic type defined in the HTML specification (serif, sans-serif, monospace, fantasy).Examples: font-family: Verdana,Arial,sans-serif;font-family: Garamond,'Times New Roman',serif;font-family: 'Lucida console','Courier new',monospace; There are two ways to ensure that a font looks the same for all your viewers: Use an image file with the text on it. You can embed fonts into Flash documents, but then your page has to be displayed with Flash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
