I think it's my monitor here at work... Can you go to this page on my website: http://www.tastytidbits.net/signup.htm and see if you can read the font? I have it set as "Dream Orphans" and it should load automatically with the page, even if you don't have it on your computer. Anyway, the small 9pt font underneath each of the fill-in fields looks really fuzzy to me, and I don't know if it's my monitor or if it just shows up that way due to the style of the font. If it's the font, I want to change it... doesn't make sense to have customers not be able to read it!

If you have a moment and can check that on your screen for me, I'd appreciate it. I do all my editing at home on my laptop and it appears fine on there, but I have a larger high resolution screen on that....

Thanks!!
Joy
 
The small print (and big) looks fine.
It is such a bright and pretty page!!!
 
I was unable to get to anything other than the payment screen from the sign up screen. What did I do wrong?

Wait... if you are talking about the sign up page - everything looks great and is easy to read including the very small font line.

Please don't complete the signup page (unless you are signing up :)) I have to go into the system and back out the subscription request. I know the page continues to the payment page correctly.

I just need to know if the fonts on the signup page appear okay.

THANK YOU :)
 
Looks great and easy to read for me, too.

Looks fine to me.
 
It shows up OK for me. Looks like regular Arial font.

Hmmmm, I wonder if it's defaulting to Arial anyway...

Maybe I will change it to Arial so it's crisp for everyone.
 
Yeah, that's why I posted that it's just Arial, on my screen.
Dream Orphans is a cool font, but it's not automatically converting to it.


I looked at the source, and it does specify Dream Orphans & Grenouille...maybe it needs to be in the style sheet stuff, instead.

I have it in the style sheet too, but this template has been particularly difficult to work with, and I would rather spend the time working on flyers and newsletters than fight with a font that wants to default to Arial.

At least Arial is universally easy to read :)
 
True, true...
