I have a web site using a script font. When some people view the
site, the get a different font. i know this happens because they
don't have the font installed on their machine, and I have heard that
there is a way to include the necessary font in the web site, so
everyone sees the same thing. how is this done?

See http://www.z29.wyzguys.net

thanks
 
The WEFT tools only work with IE, and aren't reliable either. The best thing
to do is never use non-standard fonts. Users typically don't like them and
embedding a font bloats the page (and also doesn't always work well and
definitely not cross-browser). Most designers reserve using non-standard
fonts to the cases where they can put it into an image, such as a part of a
header or other graphic that provides punch.
