Re: Downloading fonts
It didn't work. It's not coming up as an option for one of my fonts from the font list.

After u download it, you have to move the font to your font folder.

Re: Downloading fonts
Go to your Control Panel and click the Fonts icon. Then go to 'File' and 'Install Fonts'. Browse for the folder that you downloaded the font to then and when it shows up in the window click 'OK'. After it installs you should be able to use it.

Re: Downloading fonts
Got this from 1001fonts.com:
(They have tons of cool fonts!)
Help/FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
I have detected that you are running MS Windows, so here are instructions for installing fonts on a Windows PC. Just in case you need instructions for Macintosh, click here.
Installing Fonts on a Windows PC
Step 1 (Decompressing Downloaded Files)
All of the fonts found on 1001fonts.com are packaged in ZIP-archives (*.zip), which usually also include copyright information next to the actual font file. Before installing a font, you must extract the font from the the ZIP-archive to somewhere on your PC using a tool like ZipGenius (freeware), BigSpeed Zipper (freeware) or WinZip (shareware). Best is to extract the ZIP-archive directly to your desktop or to a temporary folder (C:\Temp). Please remember where you extracted everything, because you will need to locate this place in the next step and you will most likely want to clean up after all the installing is done.
Step 2 (Actual Installation)
The following step assumes that you are running Windows 95/98/2000 or NT4. Windows XP users should follow this link.
1. Open the Windows Control Panel (» START » SETTINGS » CONTROL PANEL) 2. Double click on the 'Fonts' icon in the Control Panel (a new window should open and you should see all the installed fonts on your system) 3. Click on the 'File' menu and select 'Install New Fonts' (a new window 'Add Fonts' should pop up -- If you do not see an 'Install New Fonts' menu option, please read our Problem installing Windows fonts) 4. Locate the folder on your harddrive containing the extracted fonts from step 1 5. Double Click on the font file you wish to install and click on the 'OK' button
Your font should now be installed and available to all applications using fonts, such as MS Word or PhotoShop.
