tashabear Posted January 23, 2009 Report Posted January 23, 2009 Once the fonts are unzipped you can also just drag them to the Fonts folder in the Control Panel.I keep a control panel icon on my quick task bar and for fonts I open it and open the fonts folder. Then I just drag the font file from wherever it is to that folder and it is installed. Saves a lot of clicking. This works for me on XP. That's never worked for me; I can't see them thereafter in Photoshop. Quote

Download the zip files containing the fonts to the desktop. 2. Create a folder called "fonts" on the desktop. 3. Double-click on the zip files you downloaded and move the font files from the zip folder to the "fonts" folder. 4. Click on Start --> Control Panel --> Fonts. 5. Click on File and select "Install New Font..." 6. In the dialog box that pops up, navigate to the Desktop using Folders box (the file path is usually c:/Users/[your username]/Desktop/fonts). 7. Select the font(s) you want to install (Select All works well for me) and click Install. Pretty much exactly the same, except for where to find the "Install New Fonts" choice. Quote
