Font Search

[andysocial]

I seem to have lost some fonts. When I open a publication I made 4 years ago, it claims I used some fonts in it that I can't find on my system or in my archives anymore. Does anyone have the fonts "Tennessee SF" or "Gill Sans" that I could snag from you? I thought all my fonts came from public sources or the Corel Gallery CD, but those two I can't find. Very frustrating to have hundreds of fonts but not the ones you're looking for. :-)

Speaking of fonts...you know which one I love that has suddenly disappeared? Jester...
Whatever happened to Jester?

*cries with joy* You rock.

However, doesn't the person have to have Jester on their computer in order to see my font?

Picky picky. I suppose you could render things to a graphic, but any more than an occasional headline and people will want to kill you for the speed hit. I like the cascading font descriptor tags, personally. font="Jester,FirstGrader,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif" and so on. That's how I've got my site coded (and my LJ "protected" entries for that matter), so if folks have all the fonts I have they see things perfectly, and it degrades to reasonable facsimiles otherwise. You could include the downloadable font on your site, but that always feels kludgy to me.
