Well - this will work only for those visitors, who have this font installed
on their system.
Since "Bookman Old Style" is not very widespread most of the visitors would
see a replacement font like "Times" or "Verdana".

If you really want to force a special font to be displayed you have two
options:

1. use graphical headers created with GIFBUILDER
2. use embedded fonts that will be temporarily "installed" for every
visitor. AFAIK there are two different technologies available (Microsoft
"WEFT" and Bitstream "TrueDoc") maybe some googling will help ...
