Title: Suggest fonts
Post by: pocttopus on August 02, 2019, 06:31:06 AM
Hello folks,

I don't know if i'm opening this topic in the right place so move it if needed.

Please, suggest some fonts you use or known are good for our SMF community. Our forum is also using cyrilic support so it would be nice to have a font which is good looking with this option as well.

Thanks!

From what I hear, if the font is not on the users computer it will only show default. I could be wrong but just in case, I thought I would say something.

I'm sorry bigguy, but no. The way Google uses it, it forces it to any browser. Plus you dont have to sign up at all to use it. It's a script.

The point is to suggest a font so everyone can look for it.  ;)

Really?  Always thought that was a basic font.  It's one of ten in the post editor.

Only Windows users have it, but almost all of my posts here are from an iPad.
