Font help...!!!?

Question

Im designing a css template for blogger..and i want to know how exactly i can put a specific fancy font for the post titles...if any one has any clue on how to do it..i would really appreciate the help...

wat if its a special font that i downloaded...??

Answer 1

If it's a special font that you downloaded, you have no choice but to turn it into a graphic. You can specify any font you like, but if the user doesn't have it his browser will show a default font instead. The link below lists the fonts you can count on for Windows and Mac. There are also five generic fonts in HTML: serif, sans-serif, monospace, cursive, and fantasy.

Answer 2

Whenever you design for the web you have to ensure that the fonts you use are the ones that would be available on all the computers from where your page is being accessed.

That is the reason the choice for fonts would be minimal when designing a web page.

Another factor to be considered is readability


If you need an idea of the template, refer to this page..

Answer 3

Time New Roman or anything that looks like this font. It's so overused - damn Microsoft Word Defaults. It reminds me of boring legal documents that lawyers use to screw you over. Everytime I see this font I want to just light the offending document on fire. I wouldn't say my fave - but Arial / Garamond is pretty standard.

Answer 4

font-family: 'Your Font Here';

BTW, I beleive this will only work if the client's computer also has the font you specify installed on their machine (hence most people use a graphic for fancy titles).

Example:
body
{
font-weight: bold;
font-size: medium;
color: black;
font-style: italic;
font-family: 'Book Antiqua';
text-decoration: underline;
}
