Afternoon-

I am trying to figure out how to have my webpages display fonts that probably aren't on most PC's.

I think I know the answer to this rather stupid question, but just in case....

My goal is to use some of the weirder fonts out there, without having to convert everything to a graphic.

Is the answer a big fat "NO"?

Thanks

I've seen this issue addressed (here?) before. The answer has to do with embedding the font in the web page. Unfortunately, I can't tell you how to do it. From what I remember, there are issues, as always, with getting all browsers to display properly. In the end, it might not be worth the effort.

Good luck.

It is typically done via CSS, plus third-party tools and within the CSS 2.1 Working draft @font-face is likely to be removed.

So it can be done, but is not advisable.
