Thank you very much for this very considered and thoughtful reply. Unfortunately, like others, you made the assumption that I wanted to force fonts down my users throats, and wanted to know the best way to do that. That is/was not my purpose at all.
My purpose was being able to install a tool/toolbar/utility on selected systems that I (and/or my selected testers) have access too to find out what "that font right there" actually is. I would like to be able to look at several systems (or get screen shots from selected testers) and decide, hmmm... I really like that one. So, instead of specifying the font(s) I currently have, I would specify that one first. As font mapping is so unpredictable from one platform/browser/OS to another, this tool would save me hours and of work. But as it turns out, I played and played and played and ended up choosing something fairly generic (aka boring). I did so because I gave simply up. It would be cool if someone would write such a tool. But it doesn't exist from everything I can tell. Thank you again for your reply. > From: francky <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Subject: Re: [css-d] Font Mapping Query / Font embedding > <snip of extremely thorough and thoughtful reply> ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d IE7b2 testing hub -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/?page=IE7 List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
