I have dinner in the crock pot and needed to go check on it. I will check the others now.

Marissa is at a birthday party so, other than checking on dinner, I have the afternoon free. Hip Hip Hooray!!

[jaycee]

The top one you posted “Script”. That is not listed on my computer!

The second one you demonstrated (Script MT Bold) is what mine says and what I typed in.....but it came out as Script, like Meg’s.

I am repeating myself but wanted you to understand what I was saying. LOL!

[jaycee]

I have that and it looks better with larger font.

[JustAmy]

I don’t have Angelina ... I’ll look for it and download it.

[Billie]

Billie, when I typed it in, I did put Script MT Bold!! Would the default have taken part of that name out and just leave the word Script? Because I know for a fact, the whole name was typed in because I had to back to email and check it exactly. When I previewed and saw how it showed up, I thought ‘well, thats okay, I will just use that’. Meg’s writing was exactly like mine. So I wonder what she typed in? And I got it from what shows up in my computer! Been doing emails with it and love it for emails. It is pretty! Wish it would show up here at Amy’s.

Meg's code at 1622 looked like yours:

<CENTER><FONT face=Script color=#ff00cc size=7><B>I love your Script!</B></FONT></CENTER>

Strange things happen between what we type here and what the code shows that we typed! The odd thing is that Amy TYPED the whole name (in post #1695, as well as #1675)!

Amy's code in #1695:

This is in <FONT face="Script MT Bold">"Script MT Bold".

I don't know what to tell you! Did you leave a space between your words the way Amy did, or type it all one word maybe? It's puzzling! :)

[JustAmy]

I'm going to check some of the others that Billie posted. I'm not sure what I have. LOL

AlexBrush.

AllureScript.

I don't have these, do you?

[JustAmy]

Darn ... I don’t have any of these.

Looks like I have some homework! LOL

[Billie]

:) Well, I know that you have some pretty ones (like the Embassy one, etc)

I need to take doggies out for one more walk before dinner. It's nice and cool here for a change - cloudy.

Don't know if I'll get back or not.

Love the holidays - again!

[JustAmy]

Thanks, Billie.

I’ll see you later (sometime ... LOL).

Have a nice evening.

What a coincidence!
Love a Tree Day
And Dog-Ur-Day
Both on the same day!

"Love A Dog-Ur-Tree Day"!

[jaycee]

I did leave a space because I hesitated wondering for a second if I should...LOL! Doesn’t matter. I think it just showed up as plain script as a default....I’m not smart enough to know, Billie!

After reading your post, trying to find where it started, I found myself immersed in Your Finest Tables thread from 2005.

It's impressive and punny how you are such a font of knowledge!

Never did find the beginning of this particular fontly thread.

Would you know what fonts most computers have these days? Is the default Times New Roman - so that I could tell if I had the font? I seem to have most of the fonts in this post.

Thanks for all the info!!!!

[jaycee]

I love your Script!

Billie, I used Meg's command and substituted "Script MT Bold" and see how it came out! Strange, huh? LOL! Its the default I guess, don't you?

[Billie]

Hello - testing!

I think I know what happened! Bet you didn't put quotation marks around the words? Because my "Hello - testing!" in first paragraph, I ACTUALLY TYPED <font face=script MT Bold size=5>, previewed it - the font was FR's default for me. Looked at the source code in my previewed text, and it only showed that I had typed <font face=script size=5> Now I'm going to say Hello - testing! again!

Jaycee, the first time I typed the command, I didn't use quotation marks - the font didn't show as it should. The last time I tested it, I enclosed the "Script MT Bold" in quotation marks. IF your font name is more than one word, you must use quotation marks. You do not have to if it is only ONE word!

Gotta Go WALK THE DOGGIES!

[jaycee]

Oh, my gosh! I will try again!

[jaycee]

I love your Script!

Now, with quotation marks!!
Hey, it worked!!!

[Billie]

LOL! Love your humor. I am trying to get away and walk my dog who is pleading with me because I already have the leash on him.....:)

It's good you have most of the fonts we've posted - probably because you use or have used many graphics programs, and they're included with them? I know there are web sites that list certain operating systems fonts that are included with them, and just from looking at FR, I know the default is Times New Roman. Others, I don't know! I actually hardly ever post any font besides arial, TNR or Comic Sans MS, or Georgia - but I have so many, many different ones loaded because I use them on my graphics.

I GOTTA GO - REALLY!!!! He's almost crying! :)

[jaycee]

The way I look at mine is on my email. On the line where you have it set for Times New Roman or Ariel or whatever, just click the arrow beside that and all the different styles of fonts show up. I know you already know that. If there is more, I don’t know about them. I check there to see what I have.

[jaycee]

I just re-read your post and you already seem to know what you have....I may not have understood and was giving you information you already knew of course....LOL!

[jaycee]

Now, how in the world did they do that, yorkie?
