Do you want to dynamically generate the text with a server-side script or do you just want to type text into Windows Paint-like program and export?

What a coincidence, i am usin a font i got precisesly in that site, the font name is ( AVQUEST), and actually i am using just one symbol from this font to add to a normal (franklin gothic medium) font, the problem is that Avquest is rare font not used by many people, and when someone opens my pages that symbol, revert to anormal Q in the fonts people have normaly instaled in their computers, i really would be very glad if someone help me to solve this.
The symbol i am using is the third letter in the name of the font AV(Q)UEST, any suggestions woul be really appreciated, i need to save this symbol on my computer as an image then everyone can see it when opening my pages http://cooltext.com/, i guess this is the rigt way to do it, or not??

If you use a graphics program like Photoshop or PaintShopPro, etc., you can just create the text as an image from there. You may need to import your fonts to your graphics program first (check the programs manual for instructions on how to do this).
Another, cludgy but functional way that I turn a font into an image is:
Create a .txt file with the verbiage I want turned into an image on it (using the font I want), save the file.
Open this file in my browser
Open my graphics program and do a screenshot.
Then I can save and edit the image as needed.
