How do I download fonts?

Question

how do I download fonts. I see the download button, but how do I actually get the font to work

Answer 1

Most fonts come ZIPPED.  Either make a folder on your desktop called "Fonts" or in the "My Documents" folder as you will have to unzip the font.

Open the Fonts Utility window from Control Panel. Keep it open.  Find the font file and click (or double-click) on it. Unzip all files inside the font folder you made.  Once done, find the font file with the font extension, click and drag it to the bottom tab where the Fonts Utility tab is, wait until it opens the window, then drag the file up and release the mouse button inside the open window to drop font into the Windows' FONTS folder

Some fonts files are self-installing so when clicking on them they may install themselves.

That should do it.

Answer 2

1. Go to www.dafont.com

2. Click on the font you want.

3. Once the page loads, then download it.

4. Once it is saved onto your PC, extract all the files.

5. Once they are extracted, pick the file that is the actual font & drag it into the "Font" Section on your PC.

You can find the font section by going to Start and Control Panel.

Or you could also just go to Start and Search: Fonts
