Uwe,
This question might be better directed to a general HTML list like those
offered by the HTML Writers Guild at http://www.hwg.org, however...
You're not giving all the information needed here, but let me take a
shot at it. HTML and CSS don't know or care about fonts. They will
simply transmit a request to display a font, but for the request to be
honored by the browser, the font(s) must exist on the user's system. If
you specify Frutiger in a web page, only a few of your visitors are
likely to see the font.
Now, if you want to acquire the font and make graphics from it to use
for your navigation, you'll need to own it. Since many software
applications ship with a generous supply of fonts, you might already
have it, although it might be named differently.
Adobe has the font for sale at
http://www.adobe.com/type/browser/P/P_073.html
Personally, if I were going to create graphics from a font and I already
had Swiss or Futura, I wouldn't bother buying Frutiger. For web work,
there's not enough difference to justify spending any money on it.
As a last resort, you could take your best shot at it in your code by
specifying multiple fonts. A browser will use the first font in a list
that's installed on the system. For instance, in HTML, use <font
face="frutiger, futura, swiss, sans-serif"> or, in CSS, use
SelectorName {
font-family : frutiger, futura, swiss, sans-serif;
{
