The font-family property specifies a prioritized list of specific or generic font for text. The BlackBerry Browser will use the first font that it recognizes.
Considerations
You should provide a generic font as the last alternative in your prioritized list.
When applying a style inline in an HTML document, you must enclose font-family names in single quotes.
