Hello,
I'm trying to get the Google font Roboto to work on a page of my site and I'm having trouble. It looks ok on my computer, but I think that's because the font is on my system. When I view the page on another computer, it shows up as a different font. I tried the ways Google Fonts suggested and I've tried Eric Rohloff's custom font suggestions. Clearly, I'm doing something or some things wrong. Any advice or help is greatly appreciated.
Here is a link to the page I'm working on:

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Thanks for the reply Eric, but I couldn't figure out how to put the info from the video into VSD.
It seems simple, but the font is just not showing up.
Thanks,

Still using VSD !!
I am having a problem maintaining a page of links to other websites.
Here is what is happening:
I have created 2, big, side-by-side text windows on a page similar to newspaper columns, that I have then filled with text names of other websites, 1 per line. Then I highlight each one and assign a hyperlink to it. This seemed to always work well. However the list has grown large, and now when I go in to add a new link, I find I have to be extremely careful with the link tool or I either turn ALL of them off, or worse make ALL of them the same!!!
Would I be better say, to create a 2-column table in word externally and then paste it onto my page, or something like that??? Suggestions?

Make your links in an html editor and save the page as .html. In VSD use an iframe to load it into your page.
