Adding the font
Easy as eating a cake, you don't need any extra knowledge about computers. First we need the font to load on the page or you blog, that can be done adding this CSS. Don't add the CSS directly in the document or it will load the page slow, I am hosting the CSS file on host, you just have to link it<link href="http://dl.dropbox.com/u/93278694/stylecssff.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">If you open the link in href value you will realize how big the CSS code is, it's because we aren't loading the font file, we are directly rendering it's data content.
Note: We are hosting the CSS file on Dropbox and we have no guarantee when it get deleted, so i suggest you to host it on your own server and then link it.
