CSS font script

[Saber]

I want to use a specific font on my site, but it is not defaulty with any OS. I have been told that it is possible to embed the font file as a CSS (?) so that it will display on any pc.

Any idea's if this is correct, and if so, how can I do it ??

Regards,

When using CSS you can tell the browser what font to use, but if the font is not on the client computer - there is no way to tell what will happend.
the browser might go into it's default fonts,
or any other senario, like blank pages or even crash.

there is no way to embbad a font into a page in a way that if the client dont have it it will automaticly DL and inatall itself.

try to redisign it so you will not need a font that dont come with windows, or if you must and i repeat MUST create a gif with your text in the font that you like.

If you specify a text font other than the default, make sure that the font (or its equivalent) is one that is standard on your visitors' computers. And when specifying one of these fonts, don't forget to specify the equivalent font names for other operating systems and hardware platforms as well.

In any case - i suggest you read This
