Displaying new fonts

Hello all,

I am designing a new website. I have found a nice font which works fine
on my computer. I have used this font in my webpage and when uploaded
works fine on my machines. As soon as I use another computer in the
office, they do not see this font, but a default one (I think its Times
New Roman).

So the question is, how do I get the website to display my font to the
world. Can it be pre-loaded???

Thanks, Simon

Essentially; no - not unless you can talk your viewers into downloading and
installing your font. For small areas; banners or headings you can use
images created of the font.

Stick to web-safe fonts:

Welcome.

I forgot to add the reason; the viewer's browser will only display the fonts
the viewer has installed on their machine - but you probably figured that
out already eh? :-)
