I am using an Excalibur font, however when viewed anywhere but my own
computer, it just shows as Arial or similar. I even created Word Art and
that doesn't look like what I designed either. Help!

You can only do this with a) a graphic of the text (not a good idea for
anything other than cosmetic text), or something like sIFR (which will only
work on Flash enabled browsers) -

Only those who have that font on their own computers will see it. What
you should do, assuming your use of the font is sparse (e.g. as in only
for headlines) is use a graphics program to create a gif file using that
font.

And avoid using Word Art, which inly works on IE browsers anyway.
