I have several different fonts that I used when building my site, but these
fonts don't show up on other computers that don't already have these fonts.
So how do I make the fonts appear on all other computers?
 
Hi,

Well you can't exactly force fonts..there are some programs out there that
will give viewer's an opportunity to download fonts in order to view as you
intended..but most people will not do that. One option is to create small
amounts of text using the font you would like..and convert to .gif images.
Doing that would show the font as you intended..but it really should only be
used sparingly as images add a lot of load to a page.

The user must have them on their machine, so stick with "web safe" fonts,
that is the general ones like Arial or Times Roman, and variants of, eg
Verdana
