Um... This specialist list discusses Unicode, which, last I looked, had something to do with encoding characters. Of course both fonts and Web pages use Unicode, but that doesn't mean that this list specializes in either. There are other specialist lists that discuss Web pages, fonts and other such arcana.
Before asking questions, it is usually a good idea to see if you can find the answer somewhere. It turns out that the W3C does, in fact, maintain FAQs and HTML authoring guidelines for international users under the auspices of the Internationalization Working Group's GEO Task Force, which you can find here: http://www.w3.org/International/geo Alas, the sections and/or FAQs that would answer your specific question haven't been written yet. Perhaps, when you learn the answer, you might help contribute to the edification of others? There are also lists that that specialize in answering questions about Web technology. For example, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Information on subscribing to that list is here: http://www.w3.org/International/core Finally, there was a discussion of this topic not that long ago on that list. Here is the link to the first message in that thread in the list archive: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-international/2003JulSep/0004.html Your question may not be answered to your satisfaction, since the answers to this question, like those of most internationalization questions, seems to start with the phrase "Well, it depends...", but it helps to look in the right places :-).

It is not a feature. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Arcane Jill Sent: mardi 2 decembre 2003 08:12 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Fonts on Web Pages Aaargh! No it doesn't!!!! PLEASE stop filling this thread with stuff which does not address the original question. I am interested in WEB PAGES. Nothing else. Not Acrobat Files. Not Word files. Nothing. JUST WEB PAGES. If you can't do it on a bog standard HTML page, it's not answering the question. Frustrated with all these unrelated side-issues, I decided to try Google instead. (Google often gives better answers about things than specialist lists!). I found a really good demo of exactly what I was after at "http://www.truedoc.com/webpages/intro/". Of course, I still don't know if this is state-of-the-art, or whether something better has turned up since then. If anyone has any further information about how to embed fonts in HTML files, please let me know.
