Can fonts be viewed by any1 in a JPEG file?

I thought there used to be a tech forum on TA but its been a while since i've posted so i thought i'd ask here....

I'm writing a letter onto a picture (in MS paint) and plan on using a font that the end user may not have on their computer. If I save the picture w/ the letter on there in a certain text, will they be able to see it if i save it as a JPEG file? I know fonts can be funny sometimes.

Thanks in advance

Yeah I'm pretty sure when it is saved as a jpeg it renders the font into pixels, so should be visible by anyone.

Exactly this ^

If it was a layered Photoshop file, then yes, you would likely have issues with the font, but once you save to .jpg it's simply an image, exactly how you made it.

It will but only if the System32.exe file has been deleted from both computers.
