Embedding fonts

Hi, I have found this website: [url]http://www.htmlgoodies.com/tutorials/getting_started/print.php/3479401[/url]

It says that to embed fonts I need to use something called True Doc and this code:

[code]<LINK REL=”FONTDEF” SRC=”http://www.truedoc.com/pfrs/BakerSignet.pfr”>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=”JavaScript” SRC=”http://www.truedoc.com/activex/tdserver.js”>
</SCRIPT>[/code]

My main priority is to make the fonts viewable in FireFox. The piece of javascript is to make it work in IE also.

I don’t want to use the .eot converter (WEFT) as I’ve read that it doesn’t support other browsers.

So basically I’m looking for a way to download True Doc and the Active X program (it won’t let me download the active x program using the above URL). Every link I find for True Doc takes me to Bitstream.com which has no obvious Download or Buy links.

I will contact them but this is ridiculous…. it can’t be that hard to find a bleedin’ program!!!

I know I could link to their server but I want the files locally.

any help is much appreciated ?

@phpnoviceJun 19.2006 — I haven't actually used it myself, but... CSS2 has support for cross-browser downloadable fonts. The browser just needs to support the CSS specifications. Ask for more information in the CSS forum (no JavaScript required).

Success!
