Does anyone have any idea how this new concept could be integrated
into Freeway Pro?
Paul Dunning has created an action that makes it not just possible to
do in Freeway, but also very easy. See Caxton - ActionsForge and Caxton for details and
a download link.
I advise against using this for body-size text without careful
thought and testing. The best of today’s web-safe font designs are
crafted specifically for maximum clarity and legibility on screen at
sizes of 12px and below.
There are very few other fonts that come close, so you could
compromise legibility quite significantly simply by, for example,
setting 10px type in Gill Sans rather than Verdana or Trebuchet.
Sorry to reactivate this old thread, but I don’t see anything on Paul’s pages about using the Typekit service through Caxton.
Reading the Help section on the Typekit site, it looks to me like a Typekit supplied javascript needs to be added to all HTML pages, and that FW Style tags added to a list Typekit keeps. I don’t see how Caxton has anything to do with those tasks, but I’m probably just dense!
Caxton is designed for times when you are hosting your font files on your own server.
Typekit, and other services which host the files on their servers, will require you to either add your own CSS and/or JavaScript to the tag, which you can do in Freeway using Page>Markup
