Free Web-Safe Fonts Desktop

SiS-Desktop_1280x800.png

A little present to brighten up your dull Monday morning. I’ve created a new desktop wall paper listing the 62 cross-OS Web safe fonts, based on my list of Web-safe fonts. These are the fonts that are most likely to be on both Mac and Windows computers, making them prime candidates for incorporating into your Web designs. And you can now have them all at your fingertips.

To use, just find the font(s) that best suites your needs, add them to your font family list in your CSS:

font-family: "Franklin Gothic Book", helvetica, arial, sans-serif;

and sit back and watch the typographic yumminess. if the person viewing your site has that font installed (which is likely but not guaranteed) their browser will use it. Otherwise, the design falls back to the other fonts in the list.

I’ve created the desktop for a variety of monitor resolution, so choose the one that best fits yours:

If you find the list useful, please make sure and spread the word.

  1. Thanks for this very handy list will save me a lot of time in future for coding. It does make a very nice wallpaper aswell, thanks for the 1080 x 1650 px one.

  2. It’s really great idea and fantastic job done to build the list. Thanks. I would appreciate it even more if you didn’t forget about Linux users.
