Sorry. - Michael >>From: Ikast-jensen Message 7 in Discussion There's no way you can get an .eot type file recognized by Netscape. Sadly, Netscape newest browsers version 6 and 7, while superior in many ways, does no longer support embeddable fonts. Netscape 4 did, supporting the True Doc format. With the help of the Bitsream Font Wizard you could make font definition files of the type .pfr, which did the same thing as the .eot file, albeit in another way. Thus it was only a matter of detecting the brrowser and load the proper font definition file. But that's all water under a long gone bridge. The sad fact remains, that only Microsoft browsers support embeddable fonts. What to do, then? In a recent experiment, I used an .eot file in Microsoft browsers, and alternative stylesheet for all oter browsers, thus: <script type="text/javascript"> if (!document.all) { document.write('<style type="text/css">@import url(notie.css);<\/style>') } </script> ... allowing me to select a specfic font for non-microsoft browsers. I explain all this in my article on http://www.webdesign101.dk/fonts/skrifter4.php but I'm afraid it's all in Danish. Hope I've been helpful. Best Regards Jørgen Jensen http://www.webdesign101.dk >>From: Pivo Message 8 in Discussion Yet another reason to stay far, far away from Netscape 6, and stick with 4.78.
