Info

Choosing a Typeface for your Website When choosing a typeface, it is important to understand that a browser will usually only display it if it's installed on that user's computer. Serif Serif fonts have extra details on the end of the main strokes of the letters. Examples: Georgia Times Times New Roman Sans-Serif Sans-serif fonts have straight ends to letters and therefore have a much cleaner design. Examples: Arial Verdana Helvetica As a result, sites often use a small set of typefaces that are installed on most computers (shown above). There are some techniques to get around this limitation (which are covered on pages 271-272). It is possible to specify more than one typeface and create an order of preference (in case the user does not have your first choice of typeface installed). This is sometimes referred to as a font stack. 269 TEXT
Monospace Cursive Fantasy Every letter in a monospace typeface is the same width. (Non-monospace fonts have different widths.) Cursive fonts either have joining strokes or other cursive characteristics, such as handwriting styles. Fantasy fonts are usually decorative fonts and are often used for titles. They're not designed for long bodies of text. Examples: Courier Courier New Examples: Comic Sans MS Monotype Corsiva Examples: Impact Haettenschweiler Browsers are supposed to support at least one typeface from each of the groups above. For this reason, it is common to add the generic font name after your preferred choice of typefaces. For example, if you wanted serif type, you could write the following: font-family: Georgia, Times, serif; TEXT 270
