Installing Multiple Fonts

[Sharon]

I have downloaded and unzipped a file containing
thousands of file fonts folders. Within each folder are
files pertaining to that particular font. I know how to
drag the font from within its folder into the fonts
folder in Control Panel. I need to see samples of each
font to be able to know which ones I want to install. Is
there a way to do this other than double clicking on each
one? Thanks for your help!

There may be some third party font managers that make this easier, but you
will still need to view each font separately to see if you wish to install
it. If these are all True Type fonts, you could perform a search for *.TTF
on those folders and copy all of these files to one folder. This would make
the viewing a bit easier.

Do a search for font managers on some of the popular shareware websites like
download.com, tucows.com, etc.
