Font visitor has not it! How to?

[said_fox]

Hi,
How can I solve the following problem,
I have a nice font, let its name myfont.ttf. What can I do to make the visitor of my website able to view a text on my web page using this font. i.e
<font face="myfont">The text</font>
or in css
.pasket{
font-family: myfont
}
<div class="pasket">The text</div>
Is there any way to make the visitor's local machine to use myfont in displaying the text?:confused:

I believe somebody around here has a link to something that might answer your question, but you should define a default font just incase the user doesn't have the font you want them to have and then their browser knows what kind of font it should use instead.

Previousely, I already know that font name, I regareded in my code is not available on the visitor's machine or OS.
What I mean with my question is to ask about a way that permit user's machine to use the font which I placed it on the web server to display the maintained text by it. Something like plugin, that's I mean.
Is there a way to do that?

:) Thank you Paul
You have told me by your reply that using default fonts is more better because it's easier!. I will use default fonts for ever.
