I am trying to download fonts to my computer. I am saving the fonts t
the Fonts folder, but when I go into the folder to complete the th
process, I don't see the new fonts in there.

Can anyone help me with this problem?

Thanks!

Some downloadable fonts are provided as .zip files. You need to unzip them
before you install them. The safest way to be sure you're actually
installing the fonts is to use File | Install New Font in the Fonts folder.
Browse to the folder where the new font files are saved. If Windows says it
doesn't find any font files, then you can be pretty sure that the fonts are
not ready to be installed. If they're TrueType fonts, they'll have a .ttf
file extension. If they're PostScript fonts, then the installation process
is different.
 
Thank you, Suzanne. I did finally figure this out (I had to save th
fonts to the A: drive, then extract them, and then install them as yo
said).

Thanks,
Jason
