Hello sudhakararaog,

Centry Gothic is not a system font, so this means that if the user don't have it (as usual) it will be replaced with next declared.

Centry Gothic is a Sans-Serif font, so you have substitute it with another similar font.

You can try to find another similar Sans-Serif here: Typetest - Compare fonts for the screen.

Hope this help you :)
