Not every computer has Phyllis ATT. Could be for various reasons:
Older computer
Newer computer
Person REMOVED the font
It is better to list a choice of fonts like Tim says in a style sheet or font
tags. I have Phyllis but not Phyllis ATT (?). Your other choice is make it
into a graphic and then you can use any font.
