i downloaded some fonts from www.dafont.com and i want to use the fonts on some layouts i`ll be making...though..how do i open the fonts..? i use this ghetto photo thing called "photo studio 2000" [cheap right? ]

so how shall i upload my fonts?

thank you for your time.

embed it first.. you can use weft, dl it here. then just put this in your css:



i think there's a font embedding tutorial somewhere around here, you can try and search ;o

oops...i meant on my computer...not on the internet...sorry.

there's one for that, too.. here:

i think you're asking how to dl a font. when u dl.. save it on desktop so u can see it. then unzip/extract it.. then go to the start menu and go to run... and go to C:\WINDOWS\Fonts .. after go back to the unzipped font and drag it into the fonts window. thats how u dl it. make sure all programs are closed so it will show up later.

or just click the link from the previous post

LiLCandyAngel, synkro, & crazeegirl411 were big help! thank you very mucho!

i got it figured out now...i`ll just sticky this page and the other to remember how to do this.

oh...another thing..the font i downloaded will show up in my font list for microsoft word?

because i didn`t really see it in microsoft word after i put the font i wanted in the FONTS folder..

You get Winzip (Go To: Winzip.com and download it) download the font, and unzip it. Then you go to Start > Control Panel > Fonts and drag it into your font folder.

yeah. i did that...it just won`t show up on my photo studio or microsoft word.

damn people not reading posts.

when i download new fonts it sometimes helps if I close MS Word, open the fonts from the WINDOWS/fonts folder (you'll see a window showing you the font with the sentence 'a quick brown fox..blahblah') and close 'em, and then re-open MS word to look for the fonts. it works on my comp, but it may not on yours. best of luck!

sorry...i tried that....and it didn`t really work...

Hrm.. that's interesting. It should show up on Microsoft Word.. like right after you put it in your fonts folder? You should close MSWord and then re-open it.. HRRMMM interesting..

Did you look through the whole list? Sometimes on Adobe, my fonts tend to go all the way at the bottom of the list instead of alphabetical order.

i know yall are giving me the right instructions...but for some reason, MS Word is being gay......

did u download it to ur font folder?
cus if u did it shuld show up.
if u didnt then the font shuldnt work

open ur font folder nd look for the name of the font u downloaded
