Posted By: Patscrap Re: Win a Scrapbook Getaway - 01/26/06 07:23 PM
1. Please close all word-processing programs.
2. Click on the font you wish to download.
3. Choose a saving location, either "C:/WINNT/fonts" (NT/2000) or "C:/WINDOWS/fonts" (9x/Me/XP).
OR: save the fonts to a new folder, then open "Fonts" from the "Control Panel";
select "File" -> "Install New Font";
open the drive and folder where you saved the new font files,
the fonts will appear in the "list of fonts";
select the files you want to install or choose "Select All"; click "OK".
4. Restart your word-processing programs.
