<p>People who make the websites wish that they could!</p>
<p>I know that I&#8217;m bored with Verdana, Arial, and Times New Roman (or their Apple equivalents).  But, since we can&#8217;t guarantee that every computer will have every font, that&#8217;s pretty much what we are stuck using.</p>
<p>While we can&#8217;t change the font of the main content of our webpages, we do use some tricks to get nice headers.  In fact, we&#8217;ve just updated print-bingo.com&#8217;s decorative font headers.  We&#8217;ve had them for a couple years, but our (now) older software tool didn&#8217;t work with the latest Adobe Flash Player, version 10.  We&#8217;ve also changed the font that we use&#8230; we hope you like it.</p>
<p>For the geeks: We&#8217;re running <a href="http://wiki.novemberborn.net/sifr3">SIFR 3 v.436</a>.  The font file was built with a <a href="http://www.sifrgenerator.com/">free online sIFR font generator</a>, and we were formerly using sIFR 2.</p>
<p>When will we see the day where crazy steps aren&#8217;t needed for a nicely rendered web page?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After much work and delays, print-bingo.com now supports unicode.  Back in the day, people only worried about the 26 letters and 10 numbers&#8230; not so anymore.  Thanks to Chinese, Japanese, Russian, and many other languages, we have a lot more letters/glyphs/symbols to display.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re still working out some of the kinks, but once we do, we&#8217;ll generate some template designs to show off our new international language support.</p>
<p>So, try out the new and improved <a href="http://print-bingo.com/bingo-cards-custom.php" title="International bingo cards.">custom bingo card generator with international language</a> support!</p>
