stylesheet->fonts

[woutertarifa]

Hello everybody,

 

I want to change one of my page fonts into century gothic (bold). However when I change it, the letters appear in the right font, but in a bad resolution. They are not "smooth" but with hard pixels.

 

Am I doing something wrong? Hope you can help me out.

 

Thanks,

 

Wouter

if not to you then maybe others and as far a Century Gothic (or bold) is concerned it would appear that Micro$oft decided against it after Windows 98:

Century Gothic is not a system font therefore most people won't have it. You have two options:

 

1) Set your stylesheet with a suitable replacement font if Century Gothic is missing on the users computer (ie. {font-family:Century Gothic, Arial}

 

2) Use Microsoft Weft. This only works in IE but WEFT is pointed at your desired font. This font is then pushed onto the user's browser in a temporary session. This means you can display whatever font you like - but the font is never actually downloaded to the users computer so thre are no copyright and licensing issues.
