Embedded Fonts

My organization is talking about embedded fonts implementing that MS Weft matter.

Somebody My organization is working with has requested that we use an unorthadox font for any site content. We’ve a few queries:

  • Will it be reliable (cross-browser compatible)
  • Precisely what your opinions
  • Could you do it

Thanks for just about any input.

From what I recognize, not all fonts is usually embeded, so you first have to be sure that the font he wants can be converted. Also, there are acctually two solutions to embed fonts, 1 for IE, 1 for Netscape.

Because of, what is imo, quite a poor implimentation on the very simple idea (a monkey perhaps have done it superior! font-family: url(‘*. ttf’); thats them! really hard… ) We would not do that. However, I believe if you aim to embed the font, plus it fails, it continue to degrades nicley. Consequently, if your client really wants it, explain that it doesn’t work in all browsers, but practice it, and design the website knowing that it might always be viewed in the actual ‘second-choice’ font.

My organization is guessing that your dog wants this for a body font Or even, you might be able to get away along with making images. If you do not mind the Adobe flash requirement, that may just be another approach, while it embeds fonts nicley.

With a side note, if you prefer a certain font within a Flash file but just by a small, non-dynamic explanation (title, short meaning, ect) Select that and press CTRL-B more than once. This breaks that into verctors in fact it i acctually smaller than embeding the complete characterset.

Alright, thanks.
