Thanks to Arash and Omid for your responses. I would love to get this working...

I also think so and although Weft tells you whether embedding is "permissible" for each font on your webpage, it doesn't state if the vendor of the font has disabled embedding intentionally or just inadvertantly caused it. I see that some fonts simply don't embed at all, while others (Nazanin) embed but end up looking different than normal while others (Koodak) do work ok. In any case, I have written to the developer and I'll post any info I get in case others are interested. Besides Weft, I've also discovered another commercial product which is advertised as being better than Weft: http://fairy.em2-solutions.com/main.html > But is the WEFT way really necessary today? Or is it because of the > different shapes that you need to use WEFT? Well, the target users of my webpage will be people who don't have any Persian fonts on their computer and can not/will not install one so they will end up seeing my page in (some version of)Times New Roman. Besides the not-as-nice appearance of TimesNR, the character "heh + yeh" seems to come out as "ta marbuta". In case anyone doesn't know, there is also a way to embed fonts in Word docs (Word2002 and some earlier versions): Tools-->options-->save-->embed true type fonts. This is a convenient way to check if fonts are embeddable without having to use Weft which takes a little more time/trouble. _______________________________________________ FarsiWeb mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.sharif.edu/mailman/listinfo/farsiweb
