FP2002 Fonts out of control

[Ted Grier]

My web site www.databusinesssolutions.com is on a Win2K server using full
FP2002 extensions. I am using the navigation system built-in to FP2002. It
works fine but for the horizontal page header, where it dynamically changes
to whatever is the page title selected. It reads text only, which is a
problem if my customer does not have the truetype font "Wide Latino 18
point" (like this). What happens is their browser will substitute a plain
Arial font and my web looks ugly.



I see two possible solutions:

#1

Get FP2002 or the server to dynamically download fonts to the viewers. Is
there a setting for this?

#2

Use JPEG or GIF banners instead of text. I have tried screwing around with
each page but usually destroy the navigation system to the point I have to
do the web over again. I cannot find any master file for the navigation
system (it was a Microsoft template with FP2002). The solution is probably
in using the Navigation View to edit the system properly, but I don't see
where to substitute images for text.



Any suggestions?



Thanks,

Ted

When you use a theme all button text is converted to images so the user does not need your font
Set your button/banner text in the Navigation View and run Tools Recalculate Hyperlinks
