List of web safe and common fonts
Many of you have been asking, “What fonts are safe for me to use on the web?” and “Is there a list of web safe fonts for reference?” Well I am here to help. Web safe fonts are ever important but a lot of designers I have seen lately are forgoing this important step in their design creation. Some are taking the steps to use a font similar to a web safe font but because it is not in fact web safe they inevitably have to default back to a font that isn’t quite the same. Their design loses a little of itself and at this point they typically struggle to find a font that is close and web safe. There are plenty of web safe fonts available it just takes some creativity in using them to your advantage. I have a list of web safe fonts available in the article to help everyone out.Some of you that may have heard of the term web safe before and not quite known it’s meaning, others don’t fully know the reasoning behind it. I am here to clear all of these things up. First off, web safe fonts are those that are nearly universally available on any computer. So that when the end user, regardless of their machine preferences, goes to the web site they get the same experience as anyone else going to the web site. This is what web standards are all about and ensuring that you are using web safe fonts throughout your website is just as important as including a DOCTYPE and HTML tag in the beginning.
