Help,
I am a very new to dreamweaver and I am teaching myself through trial and error. I developed a web page and it looks great on my computer. When I view it from other computers the font is reset to the default font. Do I have to upload my font folder to the server also. How do I get these fonts to be viewed on other computers.
Also can I manage more that one website using the same web address?or should I overwrite my old site with the new site (containing the font ) ?

Thanks for you help...Anyone! 🙂

If the user does not have that particular font installed, there's nothing
you can do (short of using an image or some sort of text replacement
technique) about it. Images/text replacement are OK for headlines and
titles, but really shouldn't be used on body text. Use the font families
that Dreamweaver had set up out of the box. Those are safe to use.
