[QUOTE="hempomatic, post: 1625611, member: 335450"] I don't think it's the ISP. It's the computer on the other end that doesn't recognize the font. For example, MS Word has thousands of fonts. My mail program, only a handful. If you send me an email with an exotic font my computer doesn't recognize, it will default to whatever the default font on my mail program is. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure that's the way it works, at least it always USED to be that way. The program on the other end may also always default to a specific font. For years I used Comic Sans as my default font, I liked the felt pen look of it, but any time I'd send an email, if it was forwarded back to me in response, it was always the default font of the other person.
