How to download and install Font Files ?
- Search and find a good font site : There are countless sites that have fonts available to download, but we should try to download from good sources to avoid malware and viruses. A few of the more popular font sites include "dafont.com", "fontspace.com" and "fontsquirrel.com".
- Download the font file that we want to install : We can download fonts from a variety of different websites online. Windows supports the TTF and OTF formats for fonts.
- Extract the font files : Some fonts will download as a ZIP or RAR file, usually when multiple fonts are included in a single package we will need to extract the fonts from the ZIP or RAR file before installing them.
From here we can do it in two ways.
- One by installing the TTF file. For this we have to select the TTF file and right click and click on install.
- Second method by copying the TTF file in to the font folder which is there in the local disk(c).
- The fonts will appear in all applications that are installed on computer.
