Hey guys, I don't really know which category of the forum this problem fits best so I post it here. I encountered a strange problem in which my computer cannot display georgia font. Whenever I use georgia font, curly words appear instead. This happens in firefox, frontpage or whatever programs. To see what I mean, you cna see a screenshot here:
the font on your pic is the default WINDOWS font for fancy fonts IF THAT font is NOT installed on the recipient side !! if you use any fancy font on your site, then you should either chose one that is by default installed on all major OS environments OR offer a link for free download of that font from YOUR server ! it also needs to be available for all applications. normally a font properly installed makes that font available to browser and office applications by default. I have same situation for my Amaze font I use for titles ... a good practice also is to offer in your external CSS alternate fonts in case your primary font is missing on the reader/surfer side !
That font that is supposed to be georgia, a font installed in al windows. I do have georgia installed in my computer but yet it's displaying that. That's what puzzles me.
you no where mentioned your site URL hence i have to guess it's affiliateprojectx.com if so there you have BUNCHES of vital/fatal errors in your HTML code relevant to characters and general encoding definitions. validation errors like: - reference to non-SGML character - document type does not allow element "STYLE" here. - Line 1, Column 0: no document type declaration; implying .... in addition you also may have style errors in your page - such as <font face="Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif"> the code of above site looks SOOO bad that it only can be made by a weird product such as frontpage or similar. it definitely never has been hand-verified. if you have another than a.m. site - then pls give URL of clarification/verification of the problem's root cause. make sure you have ONE clear font specification and a clean code to assure ALL browsers and all OS man properly read the data presented. some systems/browsers are more tolerant for code errors others less. the safest method for success in web publishing always is a fully validated clean HTML code! if any OTHER site is yours - the pages/sites I visited relevant to the text shown in your post ALL have one in common, they ALL are made by NON-professionals - just easy money sites sold as a complete template or so ......
