Above I experimented, specifying the font at each new line to get around the carriage-return thingy, and then because it always condensed my spaces to one, I used periods. Turned out to be quite easy that way, but periods might confuse the matter if in the chart you had numbers and decimals. Any place-holder would do though; dashes or underscores, or even alternating periods and spaces.

Why not using this juicy and boldish font called Blackoak Std.

BTW, is everyone seeing what I'm seeing as a font (juicy big fonts on the above sentence) or I can see it only on my PC? :?

Doc, I don't have that font installed. Stay with "standard" fonts.

I'm seeing Doc's font. Both Mac and PC have the full installation of the free fonts which were agreed between the two systems for web use.

If you have the standard web font set, you should only use that for font changes.

Sorry I though the problem was you couldn;t see the fonts change from anyones post.

The gifs you post though are all garbled for me and I can't make anything out.

Can you post a screen shot showing a garbled GIF?
Anyone else having this problem?

Winston's GIF files are not really legible as examples. They also look very heavily dithered on my system with white dots all over.
