Hey,

does anyone know what fonts ADE supports out of the box?

Setting @font-family in CSS to specific properties like Arial or Verdana had no effect on my test output. It seems that only generic families sans and sans-serif are supported. Can anyone confirm that? It would be hugely dissapointing though...

If this is true, what do you do in this situation? Is embedding fonts the only solution?

Knowing a specific font family, I could at least specify serif or sans-serif as a fallback value. But the process is automated, and how can one tell by the font's name whether it's sans or serif?
