Comment on Web Safe Fonts by Kevin Montgomery

I’m not sure I agree with that… Strictly speaking, those fonts are not installed on “modern” operating systems. I think Century Gothic is quite common in Microsoft Office, as is possibly Palatino, but suppose a visitor does not use Microsoft Office?

Of course, if you anticipate your target audience to have Palatino or Century Gothic, there’s no harm in putting them high in your CSS font stack.

Your thoughts?

hi Kevin

I think Palentino is web safe too (or maybe web safe-ish) and Century Gothic is on many computers now too. They are nice, underused alternatives.
