Non standard font type 

Hello, we have a non standard font type in our logo. To have a unique theme throughout our DNN site we would like to use it as the container heading font. Is this a bad idea? Any comments?

Many thanks in advance!

Oliver

Re: Non standard font type 

Is it a bad idea?

If it's not a web safe font, then when using it, your visitors won't be able to see it. They will see the substitute font that's available on their system.

It doesn't hurt doing it, visitors just can't see it. I guess ... then there's no point of doing it.

Here's the proposed solution. Check out sFIR, it's a great alternative. Please ask Google what "sFIR" is if you haven't heard of it.

Re: Non standard font type 

Let me know what you find out. I think that's the best option if you want to use non-web-safe fonts. I can sure recommend different approaches to it.

Re: Non standard font type 

 I also wanted to use some fancy font ( not arial tahoma times or verdana )  and I looked everywhere for ideas and opinions and decided that it's not a good idea at all

in best case it will be replaced by so sustitute font and your sie will not look as you planned I wanted to make a menu with fancy font soI just opted for image menu liek here http://www.riagroup.ru/
