For Windows XP ::
Double-click on the font file you downloaded, I suggest you save it to a folder called 'Font' or something so it's easy to find. Unzip it, it's one of the options on the left-hand side. Go to control panel and switch to Classic view. Click 'File' on the top, under the title bar. Choose 'Install New Font' and find you font. (Double-click on c:/, then documents and settings, and you can find it from there...) |

yeah. what she said. i do it manually though. go to your C: drive. then click on WINDOWS folder. put the font file in the font folder, and a little bar should pop up and say installing.

download the font and save it into DESKTOP (for windows xp). close the window and open up the folder that is now on ur desktop.... click extract all files which is on the left side of the window.... click next twice and the thing will start extractin files..... after that click done and u will get a new winder wit a few stuff on it.... copy the icon wit the paper and 2 t's on it...... open up MY COMPUTER and click on the C: drive.... click on WINDOWS and click on FONTS.... paste the font there and it will start installin....

Here's an easy simple way the works for Windows XP:
Obviously open the zip file. Go to your fonts folder. Then click on the fontname.tff and drag it into the Fonts folder. A dialog box will open and show you a percentage bar of the "installation." You have now just installed a font. |
