DIY Invite fonts

I am starting to play with making my invites. What fonts did all of u use for your invites?
Also, if you made pocketfolds, how did you get the paper sized correctly?

I used these four fonts.

Vivaldi is just used for our names
Lucida Calligraphy is for the titles
Bell MT for everything else
Pristina is for song titles

Once you download the fonts how do you use them?

If you find out, please let me know. I have them sitting on my dekstop but dont know how to load them in to use them....I assume I have to somehow load them as new fonts...just dont know what program to do this in.

Re: DIY Invite fonts

usually, when you download them, they are zip files. you have to 'EXTRACT ALL FILES'. when you're asked to 'SELECT A DESTINATION', you have to select the 'FONTS' folder.

if that wasn't clear, do a search on liw for using downloaded fonts.

Re: DIY Invite fonts - to add downloaded fonts

cut and paste this link below when you get to the extra file part.....this is where it loads them in -


C:\WINDOWS\Fonts
