Adding a fancy font to your website

The Problem with different fonts

Why is there a problem adding a fancy fonts to your site?
You have to be careful when selecting an unusual font for your website as you may find that, although you can see it fine on your PC, other people won’t have it installed on their computer. Therefore your web page won’t look as you intended it to look for the majority of visitors to your site.

Why doesn’t everyone have the same fonts on their computer?
Computers come with a certain number of fonts and this depends on the Operating System that is installed on your PC. Windows XP has different fonts to Windows 2000 and Windows 98. Therefore, if you designed your webpage in Windows XP and chose a certain font then others who use a different operating system such as Windows 98 will see it differently to how you intended it to look.
