ePubs and Google Font API
I know there are a ton of brilliant ppl on this forum by just browsing for a few minutes so I figured this was the best place to ask...
First off, let me just put it out there that I'm a font freak and a stickler for formatting, that said... Does any one know if the ePub format supports linking fonts from Google Fonts using the Google font API? I know that the @font-face tags are supported, but not really in alot of readers. What kind of font tags are widely supported and does anyone know an easy-fool-proof way? Thanks in advance, —Justin |

Conversion may not allow source specified fonts Not all devices have access to the Internet. read the w3.org documents for css2, then read the EPUB spec http://idpf.org/epub/201 Knock em dead just remember that many EPUB devices choose to ignore parts of the 'spec' |
