Hi,
I am building my first website and I have discovered that the font that I use for heading etc. is from photoshop. So only people with photoshop will see it. If you don't you will see new times roman or something.

SO my question is. Is there anyway that I can keep the font and let all other computers that don't have the font installed on it to see it? example. Uploading the font files on to my awardspace file manager and editing the text on the page in MS front page to use those?

Thanks,
Robert

This seems a bit complicated if you are new to the coding game. Give it try.

Thanks for that. But is there a way to do it on MS front page without messing with codes and stuff??

Sorry, i've never used front page. The only thing i can think is that you make all of your "stand-out" text into graphics. That would still mean that the rest of your text would have to be boring old times or something. Sorry i could not be of more help.

Bob, the one option you do have is to convert your header into a graphic.... This is a common solution I use if I want to display some element using an obscure font. Certainly it is not as efficient, but if it is essential the look-and-feel of your site, then this solution ensures that every visitor gets the same experience.
