I am trying to create a css file that will make the font in my webpage
'amaze.ttf '. It works on *my machine but when I access it from another that
doesn't have that font installed I just get a default font. How is this
done?

please don't laugh too loud- here is what I did:
*****************
..angel {
font-family: Amaze;
font-size: 12px;
font-weight: normal;
text-decoration: none;
}

*****************

Have a link to download the font.

That's nearly correct, but try providing alternatives like:

font-family : Amaze, Arial, sans-serif;

would you be so kind as to show me how a link to download the font from a
css would look like?

would be greatly appreciated...

<p>If you would like to see what this web site looks like with the Amaze
font, then <a href="amaze.ttf">download and install the font</a>.</p>

Don't top post. http://allmyfaqs.com/faq.pl?How_to_post

You provide the user with an (X)HTML link to the font and let the
download it themself.
