Unlimited Choice of Fonts for Your Web Site

29/02/2008

10 fonts. That's pretty much all you used to be limited to, now you can chose from countless fonts safe in knowledge that your visitors will see the text the same way you do. 

The fonts installed on your visitors computers vary widely and there are only about 10 fonts that can be considered as "Web Safe" to use on your web site.

The most common solution is to write your text in a program that can export your writing as an image. This is a terrible solution as it not only makes updating your web site difficult but effects accessibility and search engine optimisation. Google has no idea what your web page is about and some groups of visitors to your site have will find it difficult or even impossible to use your site.

Our new system can generate these images on the fly, completely automatically, from the text you type in to your Content Management System. You can use any font file you own, no matter what format. As you'd expect the results are high quality, anti-aliased text with a choice of foreground, background and under colours as well as transparencies and font styles.

Alternative text is added for those who aren't loading the images such as some screen reader or mobile phone users and Google always sees the text version of your content.

We've always been passionate about design and aesthetics and over the past few months we we're been putting a lot of effort in to the image editing capabilities of our CMS. The new Text-To-Image feature is just the next step.
