Will other platform users see the sources on my site?

4

The question is simple: I have a website, its default font is Segoe UI , and Segoe UI Light , the site uses only those two. In Windows, the site appeared correctly and without problems, I now have doubts that if they enter through a Chrome (for Android) or a Mac OS X, the font will remain and will not change?

  

Note: I'm using WebAcapella 4 to edit my site.

Segoe UI is a unique Windows source. If someone using Linux or Mac opens your site, the default system font will appear.

I recommend that you use the Open Sans font, which somewhat resembles the Segoe UI font and is available on Google Fonts. Just link the CSS.

More information: link

To use the normal and bold Open Sans font, simply insert in the HTML code:

<link href='https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:400,700' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

However, if you really want everyone to see the Segoe UI source independent of the operating system, simply embed the source using @font-face . See the CSS of the Microsoft website:

But due to licensing issues, it seems that only Microsoft sites can incorporate the Segoe UI source.
