Re: Fonts for Headings ws Re: Obscure Font needed

I have brought this up before but no one seem to have used it here. WEFT by
MS is very useful for this. It is in beta so please go download it and make
it break so that we can have it working full force faster.

WEFT is a font enhancer, you tell it what letters to show the font in and it
will save a file with only those letters as that font.

:To get around the issue of the viewer not having the fonts I want them
:to, I have created headings at various times using a variety of fonts. I
:make them about 350 pixels wide and about 72 high.  Then a short phrase,
:such as "Who We Are" or "Brief History".  Basically two colors,light
:lettering on a dark background, so the gifs are very small -- 2k or
:less.  Then I insert them in the text, with the ALT tag saying what I
:want, rather than the name of gif. e.g. "history of our company".  They
:are easy to make, they break up acres of text, they provide emphasis
:beyond what html offers.
