I am using some script font and another type of block letter font in my CSS

computer for it to appear the same as mine.

Hi Tommy.

Yes, the user must have the fonts installed on their system, thats why a
font declaration in CSS may look like this:

font: 62.5% Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;

If the user does not have Verdana on their system the browser will then
look for Geneva, then Arial then Helvetica and if none of those are
found it will render the text using generic Sans Serif.
