Where to find fonts for the Internet
?Character fonts have the advantage of decorating the page in the text, which is taken into account by search engines, unlike images that are well indexed, but not their content .
Special fonts are also needed for scientific notation or non-Latin scriptures.
Two questions:
- But how to find the original fonts ?
- How to make them available to site visitors ?
The second question is solved using PDF, which can be created using Open Office or PHP script or conversion software. It is also possible to install new fonts locally and - this is the second choice - use them in drawing software, creating images containing text.
When asked the first question, here are some tracks...
