Default Adding additional font choices to the stylesheet

I am VERY NEW to osCommerce, and am learning, through these great forums. I have looked all over, and am trying to add another type/style of font to the standard "font-family" { font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif }. Can this be done, and how do I do this? Thanks......

Default

locate your stylesheet.css and you can change your fonts there.

FYI the default font is already set to Verdana, Arial, sans-serif

Thanks for the reply. I am aware of the 3 default fronts that are set already. I wanted to change to something completely different. I have been doing additional research, and from what I am learning, if I use a font other than the typical fonts, the browser that the person is using to view my page will default back to their browsers default font. The only way that they will see the font I want to use, is if that particular font is installed on their system. This is usually not the case.

The only way around this is to embed the font itself into my website. This way when someone goes to view my site, there is a code that tells their browser to basicly download the font into their temp folder. Once it is downloaded, they will see the site, with the fonts I want to use.

It's kinda involved though. I am still researching what is involved. I am new to OsCommerce to begin with. And learning to write code is completely foreign to me. I plan on working on it, but it will probably take me a while.

Thanks again. I will let you know if/when I succeed.
