    Talking downloading fonts

    I am having a slight problem. I have created a font that I would like to use on my webpage.

    How can I check that the user has the font on their system and if they dont, download it of the website?

    Any ideas?

    Cheers,

    Re: downloading fonts

    anyone?
    this dude that's "designing" the pages I create now want me to use Garamond and Myriad Pro on the pages.
    His design looks great on his apple in Illustrator, but I know it's gonna look bad if that pages are viewed by users without this fonts on their machines, and the fonts change to arial or whatever.

    I don't really understand this things. Should the font only be installed on the server? No.....server send out html to the browser which will specify the font...right?
