Alternative Ways to Change Blog’s Font Type

Hi! Introducing the new category at B2K, Font embedding. This time, I just share some ways to change the font type in your blog. Later, I’ll write about how to integrate these one by one.

There are some alternative ways to change the font type to be nonstandard anymore, need not to use images, so your blog’s typography will more and more interesting.

  1. Cufón

    Cufon

    “Cufón aims to become a worthy alternative to sIFR, which despite its merits still remains painfully tricky to set up and use. Cufón consists of two individual parts – a font generator, which converts fonts to a proprietary format and a rendering engine written in JavaScript.”

    Article about Cufón integrating:

  2. sIFR 2.0 and sIFR 3

    sIFR

    “sIFR is meant to replace short passages of plain browser text with text rendered in your typeface of choice, regardless of whether or not your users have that font installed on their systems. It accomplishes this by using a combination of javascript, CSS, and Flash.”

    Article about sIFR integrating:

  3. FLIR

    FLIR

    “FLIR (Facelift Image Replacement) dynamically generates image representations of text on your web page in fonts that otherwise might not be visible to your visitors. The generated image will be automatically inserted into your web page via Javascript and visible to all modern browsers.”

  4. Typeface

    Typeface

    “With typeface.js you can embed custom fonts in your web pages so you don’t have to render text to images.”

    Other format from typeface:

Update : Sifr3 is down or its not being supported instead now you can try Google Webfonts.
