Question

I am developing a Wicket Application, where I am using a custom ttf font. I have placed the font copied from my Windows 7 in the war and have used in css as:

@font-face {
    font-family: Kunstler;
    src: url('fonts/KUNSTLER.TTF');
}

and then:

.parent p {
    font-family: Kunstler;
    font-size: 36px;
}

Since I am running the application from locally. I cannot see whether or not it is working in Linux or Mac.

I don’t know the mechanism, that how the browser renders font.

My question is:

• Is it safe to use font this way?
• Will this work in all kind of machine(Linux, Windows, Mac)?

Thanks in advance.

You can use “browsershots“, to see how the page looks (it supports lot’s of browsers and operating systems), just make the website visible for it and it will render the webpage fo you.
