Member	mccleacm@royalneighbors.org - 7/6/2007 8:25:20 PM adding new fonts Where are the font files located that FCKeditor uses? I found the fontname section in the config file and could add a font to the list, but choosing it did not format the text in the new font. Are the fonts located on the PC being used? Is there a setting that tells FCKeditor where to look?

RE:adding new fonts

Hi,

I think you should specify names of fonts that you have installed in Windows (i.e. in Control Panels - Fonts). I've tried to add:
Monotype Corsiva;Georgia;Garamond
and all of them works for me. Please note that you may need to empty browser's cache for the changes in fckconfig.js file to take effect on the site.

Best Regards,
Martin Dobsicek

RE:adding new fonts

Keep in mind that any font you set for a web page must be installed on every client machine if they are to see it. It is a good idea to set fallbacks, so that users without a particular font installed on their system will not default down to a font that is vastly different than what you are expecting.

For example:
SomeSpecial Font MS, Arial, Helvetcia, sans-serif
