OK my creative sisters:) I have another question

[pippi]

I figured out how to put names onto plain designs made by you wonderful, very talented DISigners. My problem is I would like to use a certain kind of font that I don't have, ex. Disney font. I know I can download it from dafont.com but then how do I get it to the font already listed in my program?

You have to copy & paste it into your windows fonts.

You can get to your windows fonts by going to:

C:\Windows\fonts

Hi Michelle,
Thanks for your help. However, I am truly not a computer person (yet) if you could please give me step by step instructions. Also, I'm on a MAC not PC I don't know how much different it would be.

Hi!

I just wanted to post the directions I found on how to install fonts on a MAC just in case someone else needs help:

Here's How:
Locate the fonts you want to install. TrueType fonts will have one file while PostScript (Type 1) fonts for the Mac will have both a printer and screen font.

Drag the fonts to the System Folder. Click OK when prompted.

Tips:
If you have some programs running while installing fonts, they may require that you exit the application and restart for the new fonts to be available.

Adobe Type Manager (ATM) and both the screen and printer fonts (2 files) for PostScript fonts are required in order to properly view and print.
