Comment utiliser une fonte «non-standard» sur un site Web ? - Alsacréations Il est de notoriété publique que l'usage des fontes sur le Web est limité à une poignée de fontes non pas standardisées, mais suffisamment répandues pour pouvoir être utilisées sans trop de risques. Et cela pour une raison très simple: la police de caractères que l'on souhaite utiliser doit être présente sur le système de l'utilisateur pour être utilisée par le navigateur. Quand @font-face tombe à l'eau CSS 2 (publié en 1998) comprenait un mécanisme qui autorisait les auteurs de pages web à proposer une fonte au téléchargement, fonte qui serait ensuite utilisée dans la page. la plupart des fontes disponibles sont protégées par le droit d'auteur et ne peuvent pas être redistribuées, y compris comme fonte «intégrée» à un site web; les fontes rajoutaient un poids conséquent aux pages (jusqu'à plusieurs centaines de Ko); les développeurs des navigateurs étaient peu enclins à affronter les deux problèmes ci-dessus (surtout le premier).

El Serif de Chocolate Let’s Make a Playful Yet Robust 3D Letter Design A few times a each month we revisit some of our reader’s favorite posts from throughout the history of Vectortuts+. This tutorial by Jonathan was first published on February 24th 2009. This tutorial is perfect for the advanced beginner who wants to take her skills to the next level. We'll explore how to create 3D text and use depth-of-field to enhance a design. Want access to the full Vector Source files and downloadable copies of every tutorial, including this one? Step 1 Start by typing each letter separate so you can adjust the angle and 3D qualities of each. Also, use a grey or light color so when you proceed to the next step you'll be able to see what your 3D text looks like. Step 2 Go to Effect > 3D > Extrude & Bevel... Step 3 Even after you apply 3D effects that you would like your letter to have you can also continue to rotate the letter to whatever angle you like, as I've done below. Click on a color and the shading will automatically be applied to the different faces of the letter.
