First you'll need to unzip the font from a compressed folder, if it's not in a compressed folder you don't need to.
Seoond, you'll have to copy and paste it into the Fonts folder in your Control Panel. Last, Enjoy Your font.

well, long told you what to do. that is what works on normal computers for normal fonts. we don't know what the specific problem is... so make sure your font is installed [go to control panel>fonts>install new font and find the folder you unzipped it to] and then try to make it a little more clear what the problem is.

when you get the zipped font folder right click it and uncompress it then it comes out and there are usually two or three other files that come out of it. you want the font file (if your on windows xp) the font files image is bluer than the others (and if you open it the font will pop up in all diff. sizes) so right click the font file and copy it then go to applications> fonts and right click on the page (a blank spot) and paste it, that should load it into your comp and you can uuse it in all diff. applications!
