re: fonts...

i've got hold of the nearest font to the offical subaru one, and used this on my web. The only slight problem is I can't see the font at work!

Obviously the work PC's don't have the font installed, but is the font not embedded in the page or something? Is there any way I can fix this without resorting to Arial

help!

no its not embedded into the site, hence why u cant see it at work, is it just a short bit of text like a header? maybe do it as an image instead?

MrDBM

yes it's just a couple of header's here and there - what's the best way to make it an image?

Type the text out in a graphics package (PaintshopPro, Photoshop, MSPaint etc) in the font you want. Set the background colour to the same one as your web page will use, then trim the image down so it just covers your text. Then save it as a gif file.

No need to set the background the same as the website background. Simply set the gif transparency value to the background colour of the image, then it will automatically display using the website background no matter what colour you make it, (unless you don't want a transparent image background for some reason).
