Hi!
The visitor must have the font installed on their computer for it to show s i am guessing it is not installed on your local machine. That is the main problem with specialized fonts!
Thanks!

hello Blaine , i think you got the wrong info

in latest browsers you dont need to have fonts in computer. even if its not in comp you can view your site.

write this css code in:
templatesja_teline_ivcsstemplate.css file

note: you change it to your font names. and be sure if its opentype or truetype. and after that you upload your font to the site main directory. or any folder. and change this according to that folder name.

@font-face {
font-family: FONTNAME;
src: url(http://yoursite.com/FONTNAME.otf) format(“opentype”);
font-style: normal;
}

@font-face {
font-family: FONTNAME;
src: url(http://yoursite.com/FONTNAME.ttf) format(“truetype”);

}

Hi issay!
Thanks for the informative answer. I am sure it will help many!
I do however want to point out that in your solution the font is installed on the web site of your site and therefore this allows the user to be able to see it.
I am still currently unaware of any modern browser that just displays a font, not installed on a users computer.
Your code pulls it from the actual web site and I am not sure what that does to loading time.
Thanks again for being such a great help issay! We need more members willing to help others like you!
