I am updating a website for a group and they have been using Parisian for their logo etc.

sample: http://www.pixentral.com/hosted/1rC4e8dLoqLVQcPHDt58rfJycRAgy0_thumb.gif (http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?picture=1rC4e8dLoqLVQcPHDt58rfJycRAgy0)

If it is a common font, I would like to assign it to headlines. I have it on my Mac (no idea when/where I got it), It is not on my mom's pc.

Anyway, I was wondering if it was common or if there is a similar common font out there.

FYI: In a web document you assign a list of fonts and it will display the first one found on the drive of the pc that is viewing it.

Thanks,

Karin

I have no idea why the thumbnail is huge and pixelated.

I have it on my PC and I know it's not one I downloaded and added. It must have been installed with a program I installed. Don't know how common it is.

Thank you for the reply and the link.

I think I will try specifying Parisian and use Verdana for my second choice.

I have very few of the fonts on the link font sample page so most of them showed up as the times new roman default. It was interesting. I am going to look at the page from my mom's xp computer. She has most of those fonts.
