Font Embedding

Name: Anonymous 2009-03-12 4:22

When is it going to catch up? Why is IE the only browser supporting it?

Name: Anonymous 2009-03-12 4:33

Opera 10 will support web fonts/SVG fonts. Whatever that may be.
Besides, nobody wants to see your web sight use this super-special cool font you found on the interbutt one day and likely used without having paid licensing fees.

why would you want to put the font file in the html file itself when you can just link to the ttf file from your css?

WebKit and Gecko nightlies support web fonts too. I don't know about SVG fonts, maybe WebKit supports them but Gecko doesn't, to my knowledge.

Just render the text to jpg in whatever font you want, and use alt text on the img tag for the actual word.

I didn't say you were, and I'm not a sepples fag either.

But on that matter, if C++ iostreams were meant to mimic shell I/O redirection, why the fuck isn't it "Hello World!" >> cout?

ITT YHBT.

Also, all the foundries are trying to cook up a new DRM licensing fiasco all over again for font embedding on the web and all the web developers are totally excited about that.

Wrong. IE supports a proprietary font format.
Firefox 3.1 and Opera 9.6 support CSS3's standard webfonts (supporting OTF and TTF) implementation. IE DOES NOT support webfonts.

I use Prince to send PDF files to my professional laser printer loaded with vellum paper of the www pages I wish to visit. Occasionally (this being such an occasion) I dictate a reply to my secretary, which she sends as a HTTP ``POST'', or as a personal e-mail to the Web Master.
A person of my rank should not have their sight offended by bad typography on a bright screen.

Gopher would be nice if it didn't have so many libertarians. I've been meaning to set up a server of my own.

Within the Gopher system you need merely to find a Veronica service, and then you will be ready to search through the millions of items of information in gopherspace for the information you seek.
