I need help with fonts.

JessAndTrav

I have never been able to figure out how to download new fonts and actually be able to use them.

Does anyone have any help for me?

www.dafont.com

Download said font into a folder.

Extract.

Under Windows 7/Vista:
Select the font files (.ttf, .otf or .fon) then Right-click /> Install

Under any version of Windows:
Place the font files (.ttf, .otf or .fon) into the Fonts folder, usually C:\Windows\Fonts or C:\WINNT\Fonts
(can be reached as well by the Start Menu /> Control Panel /> Appearance and Themes > Fonts).

ETA: In case you use a Mac.

Under Mac OS X 10.3 or above (including the FontBook) :
Double-click the font file /> "Install font" button at the bottom of the preview.
 Under any version of Mac OS X:
Put the files into /Library/Fonts (for all users),
or into /Users/Your_username/Library/Fonts (for you only).
 Under Mac OS 9 or earlier:
The old Mac fonts are not supported anymore at dafont. First, you have to convert the font files (.ttf or .otf) you have downloaded.
Then drag the fonts suitcases into the System folder. The system will propose you to add them to the Fonts folder.

Thanks. At least now I will know for the future. Never know when I might want to use that site again. The thing is that I never really frequented the other boards before my wedding, but I just like TK better than TN except for my anniversary board.
