The Dinosaur Interplanetary Gazette

Technically, every "style" of alphabet letters or type is called a "typeface" and the various sizes and variations of each "typeface" are called "fonts." For example, this "typeface" is called "Times Roman" and the fonts can be "normal," "bold" and "italic." They can come in lots of different sizes, too, which are called "point sizes."

This is 8 point.

On the World Wide Web, most people only see a limited number of typefaces: they see the ones that are installed on their own computer, because the typeface is not "sent" online, you must have it already installed on your own computer.

Ever anxious to mess everybody up and cause more trouble than we're worth, The Dinosaur Interplanetary Gazette uses LOTS and LOTS of typefaces! To clue you in, we thought we would tell you what they are, so you can see if you are getting the FULL ARTISTIC EFFECT!

Most of these typefaces come installed with Windows 95 or 98 or 2000 and they are TrueType "Fonts." We know some of them "translate" on a MacIntosh, but not all of them. (Sigh). We willl try to make some of the more exotic ones available to download.

Without further ado, here is the list. If they all look alike to you, then you might want to see if you can download them from someplace. www.microsoft.com is a good place to start! These are all shown as 14 point type.
