I heard one can embed truetype fonts, so I wanted to experiment if it works on forums. Default Fonts are boring.

so tell me, re you able to see the strange font I made?

kodƴr?

Arkhean Alkavaht?

Capital Letters:
A Æ B S D E Z G H I DZ K L M N O P Q J R F X Ŭ U V W Ƴ T C Y

Lower-Case Letters:
a æ b s d e z g h i dz k l m n o p q j r f x ŭ u v w ƴ t c y

Elvish:
Elvish?

Sorry dude. Custom fonts in forums (unless they're really pictures like the logo), must be available on the end user's side. As I don't have your Alkavahit font, I won't see it. Likewise, you don't have my Klingon font. And using [ font = Dwarven ] won't work unless the reader has Dwarven in his fonts folder.

I just see the basic letters used when you don't use your custom font. Even in signatures it wouldn't work because I don't have your font in my system. I mean... I see the 'Æ' A E combo... but nothing special otherwise.

Dude, if the end viewer doesn't have your custom font on their PC, they won't see your custom font.

not necessarily, you can "embed" TrueType fonts into documents like Word or PDF or even a website really, which means the end user does not have to install the font, because the data is stored in the document itself.
I kinda assumed one could embed fonts on forums or into RPG maker projects, in turn assumed forum and project stored font information the same way...

but I geuss I'll have to find another way...

you just have to install the language font packs when you update windows, that's all.

There are 'install font' scripts for RPGMaker XP and etc. OR... you use a bitmap font called an SFont (uses a png file to store letters). Sure, .pdfs have fonts, but they're only for that document. Forums don't really do that.
