Website designers and developers can now rejoice to using fonts other than the standard font sets used for a PC or Mac.
What is commonly known as “web safe fonts” (a good web safe font list can be found here - http://www.ampsoft.net/webdesign-l/WindowsMacFonts.html ) can now be replaced using simple CSS code linked to Google Labs for quality web design!
You simply create a style with references to Google’s font URL and set your Heading ( h1, h2, h3, etc…) or paragraph tag ( p ) to the name of the font using the font-family tag.
Here is the link to use the Google Font API – http://code.google.com/apis/webfonts/docs/getting_started.html#Quick_Start
