Scott, Indeed a Windows install doesn't have Arial Narrow out of the box. Most of the common MS apps (home and business types) provide it though. See: http://tinyurl.com/ddws8 There really aren't any other condensed typefaces that are likely to be installed on more than a tiny percentage of Windows PCs. If you want a condensed sans-serif face it is the most likely. You absolutely cannot assume that everyone has it, but I think a reasonable percentage would have it. Felix's link suggests that about 85% of Windows users do have it. As long as a fall back to Arial or other more generic sans face doesn't destroy your intended page design, I'd say go ahead and specify it as your first choice. -- Peter Williams ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
