Adding Fonts

[rush_woman]

I'd like to have the font Comic Sans available for my web pages. Is there a simple way to add this font? I read the Microsoft site info for WEFT; seems simple enough though I'm not sure the best way to get it into Zen Cart. Sure I'm not the first with the idea to add a particular font.

Any suggestions/help as always, is appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Look in the stylesheet. I'm not sure which is the right place to add the font (body is my guess), but the font-family statement is definitely correct.

body {
	margin: 0;
	font-family: verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;
	font-size: 62.5%;
	color: #000000;
	background-color: #FFFFFF;
	}

CODE {
	font-family: arial, verdana, helvetica, sans-serif;
	font-size: 1em;
	}

Now, remember the browser will use the first font in the list it finds on the user's computer.

Hey, hey!

Do I have to upload the font family to the server before I can use it in the site?

No, the browser should select the font from the list when someone comes to your site. Supposedly there is a way to embed fonts (in general, not for ZC), but I've never gotten it to work.

You'll see websites with notices that say "This site best viewed with XYZ font" which means they'd like you to download the font so you can see the site the way they intended it.
