Hi all,

I designed a web site and used the font 'Segoe Print'. After uploading it to
my hosting site, it is not displaying that font to viewers. Is there
something I need to do so that the font I chose will be the one viewers will
see? I have 3 computers here and only the one I used to build the site shows
the Segoe Print font.

Yer welcome. And..if you want to use fancy schmancy non-web fonts for
headings or something small, you can turn it into an image.



| Thank you!

ok..now you got me. How do I turn it into an image. I have always wanted to
do my heading in a nice word art but never thought it possible.

Thank you!
 
Because most people will not download and install a font just to view a
webpage.

The font must be installed in a computer for it to show in a web page.

You need to use a common / web safe font.
