I was curious as to which combinations of serif and sans-serif fonts are preferable to use that are compatible with most browsers.
While I am aware that with the introduction of CSS3 importing custom fonts is a great solution, I was wondering, as a back-up, which combination would be good to use? Is there even a good/bad combination with the available fonts?
The fonts would be used for a restaurant webpage.
I'm not 100% familiar with typography and would appreciate some professional opinions.
Answer
If you want to use @font-face, go for a service that ensures proper display on all (most) browsers and OS. Google Webfonts, Typekit and Fontspring come to mind, but there are some others as well.
