My HTML coding is fine link works and everything.
The only problem is the when I use it on a mac the font does not look the same as the one on Windows.
What tags should I be using in order to change to the correct font on a mac computer.
Here's the coding I used for the webpage:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title> Sherwood Style </title>
<meta charset="utf-8"/>
<style type="text/css">
body{ background-color:#000000;
font-family:Bradley Hand ITC;
}
a{ text-decoration: none}
fieldset{ border: none;}
form{float:right}
</style>
</head>

In principle, you can embed your font in HTML, then it will be rendered in the same way on different systems:

However, I would not recommend that. Different browsers introduce even more noticeable difference, on the same OS or not.

For some ideas on browser incompatibilities, please see my past answers:
