Font problems in web design; can u help?
I designed a website using Copperplate Gothic for a font. It has to stay in that font because it has to do with a logo. When I upload it and visit the website through a browser, that font doesn't show up. Instead it's in Times New Roman! I can't get it to upload properly! I need a detailed solution to this problem!
How does one "embed" the font. I need details, please!
I tried WEFT. I might have done something wrong. When trying to send the info to the website it sat there "working on it" for over a full day. Is this normal?

instead of using font, make the font a graphic because if the font you are using is not installed in other people's computer it will not show on their computer.
The other option is to embed the font. You can use microsoft weft to do this. You can download it from here http://www.microsoft.com/typography/web/embedding/...

If you need the logo in a certain font, create an image of that logo, using the font. You can't use arbitrary fonts because people need them installed on their computers. I googled a page with a list of web-safe fonts (http://www.ampsoft.net/webdesign-l/WindowsMacFonts... anything else is not widely installed.

the only way you could *rigidity* an internet site (or specific components of an internet site - optimistically only that!!!) to be displayed in a font the reader does not have, is to demonstrate that area of the website as a picture. as an occasion, in case you have an h1 you insist on exhibiting in Wingdings and you're undecided the reader has Wingdings, then you definately could greater valuable create, say, a gif or jpg with the textual content fabric created in Wingdings, then imbed the img on the suited place on your internet website (with an alt="..." of direction).
