Custom script font kerning and letter spacing with fontface


I'm having an issue with a script font called Thirsty Script Bold that I'm using on my site. The letter spacing appears to be correct for some letters, but not for others. I haven't even touched the letter spacing though. You can see an example of it here: http://oi40.tinypic.com/2wpikgw.jpg. As you can see, the end of the "e" doesnt fully merge with the "b" and the "b" is too far right to merge with the "s".

I have tried messing with letter spacing, but it just seems to worsen the problem.

Here's my css for the page-

p.websites{
font-family: ThirstyScriptBold;
font-size: 80px;
text-align: center;
margin:0 auto;
}

Here's my HTML for the page-

<p class="websites">Websites</p>

Here's my css for fontface-

@font-face {font-family: 'ThirstyScriptBold';src: url('ThirstyScriptBold.eot');src: url('ThirstyScriptBold.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),url('ThirstyScriptBold.woff') format('woff'),url('ThirstyScriptBold.ttf') format('truetype');}

Solution

  • Unfortunately. I believe that is how the font is displayed. I recommend using another font that is similar, but works. You can find one for free at: http://www.google.com/fonts/
