okay okay.. this may be annoying but I've tried many ways to download fonts. I put it in my FONTS folder, opent he zipped folder, etc. BUT it never seems to show up on photoshop 7.0. I usually tried www.dafonts.com.

The blog I looked at to "help" me with downloading fonts.

Try opening the font in the folder you put it in so if you downloaded say proky go to the font foler open porky and see if it's there that's how I always install my fonts.

sometimes you have to restart ps .
If you installed it write you should be able to open photoshop , then open the font folder at the same time and sometimes that helps the font appear.

If you open your font folder and the fonts not in there then you downloaded it wrong.

I was saying open ps then while in it open the font folder. Sometimes that makes it show the font.

Don't actually save the file in your FONTS folder. Save it somewhere else like in My Documents and extract the contents of the folder into FONTS.

i usually download them/save them to my desktop,extract the folder of the font there, and go to control panel>switch to classic view if you have to>then drag the fonts into the FONTS FOLDER.then i delete the extra stuff off of my desktop.but you can save them bye making a new folder on your desktop naming them fonts aka the zipped fonts folder.hope that helped :]....it should show up on photoshop after though.
