Mr_Pitbull Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Ok, just downloaded a font from www.dafont.com and i want to use it in my edition of CS2.Sam Holmes would probably be the best person to be asking, but other comments are obviously welcome.Thanks in advance.P.S. If you want me to be more specific just say, im basically wanting to import the font in order to use it on this image im working on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeza Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 to install the font you.... 1 go to the zipped folder ( then unzip it ) 2 then copy the font file into the font folder (this can be found by going : start>control panel>fonts)then it for definate will work in word and i also think in photoshop too.

What do you mean by 'unzip it'? How do I do this?Cheers,Sam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

am4zin Posted April 13, 2006 Report Share Posted April 13, 2006 Slightly off topic, but cs2 is the complete suite yeah? if so, I've seen the titles of the other programs that are included alongside photoshop, but what do they do, and is it worth gettin cs2 instead of photoshop on its own?By the way, get an evaluation copy of either winzip or winrar (I'd go for winrar) to unzip the files, but check to see if you can extract without getting the programs; some files are self extracting I think.

Siders77 Posted April 14, 2006 Report Share Posted April 14, 2006 it won't be available in photoshop until you close and restart it Yes you can. After I've installed a new font I've been able to use them straight away without restarting the program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
