FP2000: Specifying a Series of Fonts Using the FONT Tag

• Microsoft FrontPage 2000

SUMMARY

You can specify one, or a series of fonts using the FONT tag, rather than defining fonts using Cascading Style Sheets.

For example, you can specify a single font:

<font face="Arial">

<font face="Charcoal, Arial, Times New Roman">

MORE INFORMATION

When you specify a series of fonts, the Web browser will attempt to display the text in the first font in the series. If this font is not installed on the computer you are using to view the page, it will display the text using the second font in the series. The Web browser will cycle through the fonts until it finds a font that is installed on your computer. If it does not find any of the fonts listed in the FONT tag, it will use a default font to display the text.

To specify alternative fonts for text in FrontPage, follow these steps:

1. Open your page in FrontPage.



2. Click the HTML tab.



3. Find the <font face=> tag that you want to modify.



4. Click after the font name, type a comma, type a space and then type the name of the alternative font you want to use. Repeat this step for each additional font you want to add.
   
   For example, if you want to specify three fonts, Charcoal, Arial, and Times New Roman, modify the FONT tag so that it looks similar to the following:
   
   <font face="Charcoal, Arial, Times New Roman">
