Can I use Trebuchet MS as default font for my website, Is it loaded as default in Mac

[vivsin]

I am trying to improve typography of a website, and willing to use trebuchet MS font.

I want to know if its safe to use this font? I mean is it as common as Arial, Verdana etc?

ir's usually common for typesetting font, but common is times new roman and arial for pc.

although it's a common font, just to be sure use a CSS style like this:

html {font-family:"Trebuchet, Arial, sans-serif"}

and a nice way to use a not so common font (yet sort of widespread) is like this:

html {font-family:"Futura Bold LB", Trebuchet, Arial, sans-serif;}

of course, the nifty way is to use SiFR, but the two above will cover 99.99% of users

I am aware of that, but when your website is all about web standards and typography, you can't take risks
