Since some cluelessness indicators have nonzero values, it is quite
possible that your _real_ question is not "[H]ow to use [an] OCR font on
[a] [W]eb page[?]" as on the Subject line. But if it is, the answer is
that just as any other fonts, namely by using the deprecated
<font face="..."> markup or using the font-family property of CSS, which
belongs to the topic area of comp.infosystems.www.authoring.stylesheets.

The most widely available OCR font is probably "OCR A Extended".
About 40 % of Windows systems have it available according to
http://www.codestyle.org/css/font-fa...sResults.shtml
What this implies depends on _why_ you would use an OCR font.
