Hi,
Our ecommerce site was recently rebuilt and the designers used Cufon fonts for a lot of the fonts on the site. This enables us to use more fonts than the standard arial, helvetica etc but there are various problems we have encountered:
- it can take a while to load
- the text isn't selectable
- it's not compatible with all browsers
I can see that there are alternatives now such as Google Webfonts:
http://www.google.com/webfonts and Adobe Typekit https://typekit.com/foundries/adobe and I'd like to move to one of those.
I'm looking for a css / html expert who can:
1) Recommend which out of webfonts and typekit we should go for
2) Go through our site (ftp access will be provided) and take out all instances of cufon fonts and swap for the new method we choose. There are a lot of pages that will need to be updated but it's impossible to predict how much work is needed which is why I'd like to have this done on an hourly rate.
3) Choose the most suitable fonts to use to replace our existing cufon fonts.
A knowledge of php would be helpful as the pages are created from a mixture of several css stylesheets plus includes such as header.php and footer.php
As ftp access to our site will be provided it's important you include anything that will prove your credibility etc.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Andrew
