Fonts for Worksheets
 
Hi Guys!

I was just wondering what fonts are safe to use on this site.  I uploaded some worksheets with a cool font (well, I thought it was cool) and when the worksheet appeared, my font had been changed to some "standard" font, though I didn �t download my own worksheet to find out what that font was.  I tried it again with a different font that I thought was a standard (yet cool).  Again, another font came through when I uploaded.
It �s okay.  The information is still there, but it messes up my formatting and people have sent me messages saying that the formatting is off.
Besides Times New Roman and Arial, what other choices do I have that will come through after uploading?

Thanks for any advice you can give.
Karen

What I do is this:
 
I open a text box / square (?) in Power Point, I type the title in the fonts I want (any font I wish) inside that text box / square and then clik right on the text box / square and save it as an image that I insert later in Word...

Thank you.  That is a great idea!!!
But is it editable for the other teachers?

You can aslo include the font name in your worksheet description along with giving a site where the font can be downloaded.
 
You will also find lots of other ideas & information via the Forum Search box at the bottom of the home page - just type in �font � & hit enter! There are some fairly thorough explanations & ideas, even in some of the older discussions!
 
Cheers,
AB

When I want to use a very different font which I know won �t be installed in everybody �s computer, I use Wordart. It saves like a picture, but you can do it while you are working i word.
