Hi i-networks,
What you can do is specify the font in a CSS style, but also provide options for it to degrade if it isn't installed.
The following CSS style will attempt to load calibri if present and degrade to arial or helvetica if not.
But the best advice is the one Rouchie gave you...don't use a non-standard font.

There is but no reliably. There are ways to get the style sheet to link to a font, but this means the font has to be downloaded with the page, which can be very time consuming for large font files. Second, the process only works in IE, and nowadays it tends to be configured not to allow this, because people have sabotaged font files with viruses etc.
So the easy (best) answer is not to bother. Make your page web-friendly by using the standard web fonts.
