After selecting to embed the Old English font to my website, I get the "Provide FTP or File location where the following file should be saved in order for it to be available on your web server." message.  I am not sure what to enter here.  The root I used is my main site's url and this is what I try to use here but it does not work.  Please help.

Hi,
    its upto you whether you want to create your fonts at a local drive or directly at your webserver location.
 
Easy way out is Create font objects on a local drive, then manually upload them using the method you use to upload your html pages.
make sure you allow your site's URL in allowed url list.
 
See ya,

Thank you very much.  I created the files but my pages have not been changed.  Do I simply upload the eot files to my site and nothing else.  Sorry, I am very new to this program and web design.

Ok, actually my html pages do call the eot urls but the font is still not changed on the site.  The site is www.dragonpub.com if that can help.  I uploaded the fonts via FrontPage publish.  They are on the server but don't seem to be getting called.  Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks

Hi,
    Your EOT is working if you access your site without "www" for your URL.
You have not included your URL with "www" in the allowed root list.
 
Re-generate the font including the full URL and you should be able to see the text in desired font.
 
See ya,

Thank you so much... its working great!!!  One last question though... I have an event page on the site that is php.  The code to call the EOT is correctly put in the page but the page is not displaying the font.  Is there something special I have to do for php pages?

Hi,
    make sure you have correct CSS code or link to your style sheet in the section of the pages, Font face declaration is correct on the php page you wish to use the EOT.
 
See ya,

I have a similar problem, but I am trying to embed the fonts to my blog. Entering my blog URL is not an option. Is there some other place that I can store these to make them accessible to my blog?
