jakerrr -> cannot publish correct fonts (10/17/2005 6:29:13)

I am using Frontpage 2003. I have a problem pusblishing the correct fonts to the server. I use 3ix as my host. When I publish, the whole page goes to the server fine except for the fonts. Any fonts imbedded in buttons are fine but all of my other fonts don't transfer. It ends up using the default font for that particular style on that computer. Every computer I view my site from gives me a different appearance of the fonts.

Any ideas on how to fix this[8|]

If you are using nonstandard fonts then people without those fonts installed on their computer will see the default font, usually Times New Roman.

It is advisable to stick with 'standard fonts that are available on most computers and specify them as a font family e.g. 

p
{
font-family: arial, Verdana, sans-serif
}


or for an inline style 
<p style="font-family: arial, verdana, sans-serif">

Then if arial is available it will be used, if it isn't but verdana is that wil be used and if neither is available a simillar sans-serif font will be used.
