If somebody has fonts installed for specific reasons then presumably they don't want web pages changing them. Web pages shouldn't need any more control than selecting from "serif", "sans-serif", or "monospace". The most legible font is the font you're most familiar with. I don't want web pages to use different fonts just because some marketing drone thought it was good for branding. It's disappointing that we allowed websites to abuse fonts for vector icons.
- kmbriedis 9y agoHave you heard a term 'design'? + sometimes you can't adjust the website to work well with all (or even the popular ones) sans-serif fonts
- goialoq 9y agoGive one example where users benefit from the website forcing a special font. And even if that happens, the website can provide the font to the user. None of this requires the user telling the website host which fonts are installed.
