Usually someone will answer because a lot of font makers upload their fonts there. hope I helped =] [ xlickablex's advice column | Ask xlickablex A Question ]

Then press ctrl+F and enter the text with the font you want. Look around the text, it should look like <p id=something>the text</p> or <p class=something>the text</p> or <font some stuff>the text</font>. If the text is in between <p class=something></p> or <p id=something></p> then you need to go to the top of the source and look for either (if it's class=) .whatever_the_class_equaled{font:font_size font_type} or (if it's id=) #whatever_the_class_equaled{font:font_size font_type}.
If there was no <style> tag, or that wasn't in it, look for <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"
href="SOMETHING" /> take whatever SOMETHING is and put in in the url, in the same directory as the current HTML file. For example, if something is 28.css, and you're at advicenators.com, put advicenators.com/28.css if the URL is advicenators.com/stuff/thing, put advicenators.com/stuff/28.css. This will give you a text file with the .stuff or #stuff. If neither are those are true, look to see if the text you want is surrounded by <font> tags, if so <font face=the_type_of_font size=font_size>. If the text was written by javascript, then it's more complex and I can't *tell* you how to do it. Give me a personal question with the exact URL. If you have to have an account for something, get the source and copy/paste the entire source in the question. Don't ask me questions in the feedback, I have no way to respond.
