Style Sheet Question

[SFC]

Can I throw the font "Optima" on a style sheet..

I would prefer to make the menu text links, rather than images for SEO purposes.. never really messed with sytle sheet much other than basic rollover stuff.

Thanks,
Mike

Well, what you need to ask yourself is whether the people viewing the site are going to have that font on their machines or not and it doesn#t really sound like a font most people are going to have, i know i don't have it.

Yep, basically you need to stick with, arial, times new.., georgia, courier new or verdana.

I belive those are the ones just about everyone has.

Tahoma, as well.

Thanks, I'll probably go with images than..and create a small site map at the bottom of the site...

I don't see any harm of adding Optima on a style sheet, as long as there alternatives specified in case the user doesn't have the font-

font-family: Optima, Verdana, Lucida, Arial,
Helvetica, sans-serif;

I guess it all depends on how important it is to have this particular font, what purpose it's going to be used for and what sort of site it is.
