Customizing the Fonts on Your MySpace Page

Changing fonts is one of the easiest ways to customize the profile and comment sections of your MySpace® page. But how do you choose which fonts to use? With thousands of fonts to choose from, the choices can seem endless. The first thing you will need to determine is which type of font you plan to use.

Using System Fonts
The most common method of customizing the fonts on your MySpace page is by using "system" fonts – or the fonts that come pre-loaded on most popular operating systems. Since most people will already have access to these fonts, you will not need to purchase any additional fonts or font licensing.

Using Non-System Fonts Through EOT Technology
Embedded OpenType® (EOT) is a compact font format designed for embedding fonts on Web pages. EOT fonts will need to be purchased and subsequently "hosted" at a domain of your choice. The advantage of using EOT fonts to customize your MySpace page is that you can choose from any of the thousands of fonts in the Monotype, ITC and Linotype libraries.
