Hello
I read somewhere that if I use some true type fonts and embed that font in my web pages, then it can be seen by even by computers not having such a font. Ok. Now how to embed the .ttf file into your web pages?
Kindly help.
Thanks.
Kichu

You can embed fonts into web pages using a microsoft tool called WEFT (Web Embedding Fonts Tool) available free of charge here: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/web/embedding/default.htm?fname=%20&fsize=

However it should be noted that this is highly in development and not widly supported (IE4+5 only) as such it is worth examining but mabee not using just yet. They have put embeded fonts to the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium) to be added into web standards but that may take a year or so.
