Fonts
Hej guys!
Now I'm asking myself if there is any way to force font installation on the user PC when he visits the web page, I know forbuch of solutions for fonts that are not available on the users PC but what if I want to have this and only this font and it must be text and not picture. Is there any way to do this, or is there a way to stop the user from accessing the web page, saying you do not have these fonts installed, please install them to..blablabla. Thank you!

Hi there,
I can't think of a way to do this short of using an ActiveX control or a BHO.
Speaking only for myself, isn't this the sort of thing we're *not* supposed to do as web designers? We get to suggest certain design choices, but if the uyser has a really good reason for not wanting to follow our design guidance, aren't we supposed to respect that?
Personally, I would reconsider such a requirement. Not everyone uses the same browser to access content.
Hope this helps...

Hi,
I remember doing it for IE 5.5, but I could not find any documentation on MSDN. Lance's reply is the best solution.
At a pinch you could try a different media for your presentation - Flash, Silverlight, PDF or lol, a jpg image. (I have seen web sites that used images i/o html, waloc)
Regards.
