In Response To: fonts used on website *LINK* (Toronto_born)

It shouldn't be a problem for Windows users as well as users with other platforms that have installed MS Office products. All in all, you should be okay. But, it is often a good idea to give alternate text formats.

When you set the FONT, you can specify alternates by listing them with a comma seperation. Try the following example:
FONT face="Comic Sans MS, Arial, Serif"

This way, if the client does not have the font, it will see if it can load an alternate font instead.

You site looks good by the way. Nice Job!
