What are the "Normal" Fonts

R

Rob

Hi Everyone,

I created a website using the Copper Gothic font.. Evidentally this is one
of the "Normal" fonts.

Does anyone know what the normal fonts everyone would have installed on
their computer. I thought since I had it as part of my XP installation that
it was standard.

Thanks Rob

I don't have "Copper Gothic" I have Copperplate Gothic and as an example, please forgive this post in html....for those that can't read it. Is this the one you mean - Copperplate Gothic?

Kind of hard on the eyes for a 'standard font' OK perhaps for titles, but otherwise stick to times new roman or arial.

Usually I use such fonts as Ms trebuchet, which looks similar to arial, and would probably degrade in a friendly manner to times roman or such.

You can specify the font you want to "degrade" to by setting it in the font familr attribute in css.
Also it's a good idea to end it with a "family" setting such as serif like this:

font-family: "Comic Sans MS", Verdana, Arial, serif;
