A. The recipient of the message must also have the font installed in order for it to display on his or her computer. This is also true for websites that specify the font in markup. To ensure that the proper font appears on your web page, you must create a graphic file or embed the font within a Flash file (see Mike Davidson’s sIFR for an elegant Flash embedding method).
