Selecting Fonts
The shape of the text is determined by its font. You can create text in any vector font available on your system (TrueType, OpenType, and so on.) but after you publish the content, surfers will only see the font if it is available on their system.On Windows, you can select any TrueType font installed on your system. But keep in mind that the text will look different on surfers machines if they do not have the fonts you selected. For example, the default fonts are different on Macintosh and Windows system. When the AXEL player cannot find the font you used on the surfers system, it uses Helvetica normal.
The following fonts are available on both MacOS 9 and Window ME. If you use these fonts, it is more likely that your published content will appear the same to surfers on Windows and Macintosh systems.
