Font Linking with @font-face
The text above should be rendered in Pfennig, thanks to web font linking with @font-face. If you see a monospace font, your web browser probably does not yet support this new web technology. If you do see the font you expect, to the right is the CSS code that loads it - feel free to copy and paste this code into your CSS stylesheets. We have plenty of bandwidth, and you are free to download the files and host them yourself. Learn more…
