    the one I'm using, Century Gothic, looks unclear, kind of shaky, on the web page.
    thanks

    For web-safe fonts, you could try Gil-Sans or Verdana. They're not as thin as Century Gothic but they'll be easier to read and they are web-safe like Century Gothic is.

    Gothic is a good font but its better to use verdana with font size 12 and arial normal fonts.

    As someone already said, Verdana and Arial are the safest fonts you can use. Verdana is the thinner of both, so that's what I'd go with.

    My opinion is use that font,that
    suitable for all to read easily.
    Sometime some web designer use
    so stylish font that will not understand
    even.
