Hi again,
Just for completeness, I have researched those fonts that are universal to any operating system, as well as modified my HTMLArea Page TSConfig. My results follow - hopefully they'll be of use to someone:
Arial
Arial Black
Comic Sans MS
Courier New
Georgia
Impact
Tahoma (not Linux compatible!)
Times New Roman
Trebuchet MS
Verdana
#### HTMLAREA Additional Page TS Config #############################
RTE.fonts {
face1 {
name = Comic Sans
value = 'Comic Sans MS'
}
face2 {
name = Courier New
value = 'Courier New'
}
face3 {
name = Georgia
value = 'Georgia'
}
face4 {
name = Impact
value = 'Impact'
}
face5 {
name = Tahoma
value = 'Tahoma'
}
face6 {
name = Palatino Linotype
value = 'Palatino Linotype'
}
face7 {
name = Trebuchet MS
value = 'Trebuchet MS'
}
# noFace {
# name = No font
# value =
# }
}
# Specific setting for the fontstyle selector:
RTE.default.buttons.fontstyle.addItems = face1, face2, face3, face4, face5, face6, face7
# Remove Garamond, Lucida Handwriting, Courier, Webdings, Wingdings
RTE.default.buttons.fontstyle.removeItems = 5,6,7,8,9
