85. ranheim - 9/12/1999 1:02:40 AM As I have said on many occasions previously, I am a dunce when it comes to computers. (Some of you will question whether this is limited just to computers).
But, I clicked into this thread expecting to see reasons why a new person should become a regular participant in The Mote. And this is a far different cup of tea from my expectations!
Am I the only one that interpreted "Try the Mote" in that manner? Or should this thread be re-named? 86. KuligintheHooligan - 9/12/1999 1:07:48 AM phillipdavid, thanks for letting me know that you saw my Brush Script, but why didn't I? What I mean is, I see Brush in the HTML assistance section, but when I did it myself in my own post, I didn't see it on my screen.
Did anybody see the Desdemona font I used? 87. IrvingSnodgrass - 9/12/1999 1:11:44 AM Vic:
I didn't see the Brush Script or the Desdemona, and I have both installed. I did see Brush Script when CalGal tried it recently. All this font stuff is very confusing. 88. phillipdavid - 9/12/1999 1:19:49 AM Kuligin,
I did not see the Desdemona font you used before.
The key, I believe, is that you have to have the font installed in your system folder. Go to the HELP section of FontFreak.com for instructions on installing fonts into the correct place on your PC.
And they even have a MAC section, Irv. 89. phillipdavid - 9/12/1999 1:21:21 AM And once fonts are installed in the correct place they are available in all your applications, from browsers to word-processors. 90. IrvingSnodgrass - 9/12/1999 1:26:42 AM PD:
I do have those fonts installed, but they didn't appear when Vic used them. That's the confusing part. 91. Greystoke - 9/12/1999 1:36:25 AM Time check. 92. Mr.Right-O - 9/12/1999 2:02:43 AM Looking good. 93. arkymalarky - 9/12/1999 3:13:48 AM I've had font troubles, too. I could see lots of nifty ones other people were using (some I couldn't see and figured I didn't have them installed) but when I tried to use the same fonts it didn't work. I didn't see Vic's fonts, either, but I have them in my computer. Maybe Vic and I are using the wrong tags or something. 94. KuligintheHooligan - 9/12/1999 3:14:43 AM PD and Irv,
Thanks for the input. I'm still not sure why Irv could see Brush when CalGal used it, but not when I did, and I know I used the HTML tools properly, since the other items worked fine.
The lines are veeeeery slow right now, so I'm not going to try to download anything from the site just yet PD, but thanks for the hotlink! 95. KuligintheHooligan - 9/12/1999 3:18:45 AM arky, I'll try something again now. Tell me what you see.
This should be braggadocio 96. KuligintheHooligan - 9/12/1999 3:19:53 AM Hey, that worked! (at least for me)
I'll try Brush again. Here is goes:
this should be Brush Script 97. KuligintheHooligan - 9/12/1999 3:21:05 AM OK, for some odd reason, I could see the braggadocio, but not the brush.
Anybody else have the same problem?
BTW, I used 'Brush Script' for the name of the font. 98. arkymalarky - 9/12/1999 3:25:17 AM I see the braggadocio, but I couldn't use it when I tried the other day. I wanted my "PIG SOOIE" call in PP's Sports Bar to be in Braggadocio after we beat SMU (pronounced by Arkies as a word--smoooo). 99. arkymalarky - 9/12/1999 3:26:02 AM Oh, and I didn't see the Brush Script either. 100. KuligintheHooligan - 9/12/1999 3:27:40 AM Attempting several font faces:
Book Antiqua
Brush Script MT
Desdemona
Playbill 101. arkymalarky - 9/12/1999 3:29:29 AM I saw all those. What did you do? 102. KuligintheHooligan - 9/12/1999 3:29:35 AM OK, those worked. I see my problem now.
You have to say "brush script mt" for it to work.
Also, before I only put "face=" and not "font face=" and that was the problem too.
Now you can read this! 103. KuligintheHooligan - 9/12/1999 3:30:29 AM Ooooooh, I feel sooooo powerful now! 104. KuligintheHooligan - 9/12/1999 3:32:12 AM This is Wide Latin
Does anybody have a Greek font?
