Fonts

Is there a way in ASP .NET to use non standard fonts?

Or if not which fonts do you think look the classiest. I know that is a
non specific question, but just throw some out there for me to try.

Thanks.

Bob,
Yes you can use any font you want. Put a list of names in the font names
style property. Browser is supposed to display using fonts in the font names
list. End your list of names with a generic name for maximum compatibility.
See the CSS spec for more information.

Good Luck

i think these fonts look the best:

Verdana, Georgia, Tahoma, Trebuchet

if using asp.net 2.0, add a theme, put a style sheet in the theme, put
in text like this:

body
{
font-family: Georgia, serif;
}

[if you want to use Georgia]
