Need winzip help?!?

How can I use fonts once they have been downloaded?

Re: Need winzip help?!?

I found directions posted by Liz I think when I did a search on 'font' or 'downloading font'

Marcella, yes I think I did post instructions before -- thanks dubliner.

Can you tell me what folder you downloaded them to? And do you use Windows?

Sowwy for not searching..


Yes, I do have windows they are in the zip file..

Re: Need winzip help?!?

OK, but where is the zip file?
You have to unzip them . . . .
You can export it from the zip to your font folder, do you know how?

Do you have Winzip?
If not, you can quickly download the free version.

phew, close call

OK, here goes I'm not at home, so I'll try to remember the set up as best as I can.

First of all can you unzip them to get each one separtely (how many fonts are in there?)

Gotta step in. More fonts loaded means a slower computer. Becareful!!! Also some computers will crash with more than 700 fonts installed. Especially pre Windows 2000 operating systems!

Re: Need winzip help?!?

Thanks LIW, that's great info !!!
How about if I have XP, how many fonts can it handle?
LIWeddings Posted:

Re: Need winzip help?!?

Not sure, haven't played with XP too much.
I have it loaded on two test machines. When I tried looking for some admin features that are in 2000 pro - well, they aren't in the same place. So after throwing the computer out the window I now only have one XP test machine and the employees are using it. Know anyone that wants discounted computer parts? Slightly scratched!

Re: Need winzip help?!?

I also noticed they werent in the same place - - - hmmmm. . . . I have to ask my brother - he's a computer geek

Hee hee, I'll ask him if he wants spare computer parts too

Geeks here too. Just need more patience.


I wondered when I was going to use that?
