When you download a new font, how do you like use it in paint or something?

Question

I downloaded some fonts from a website, and I was wondering if anyone knows how to like use them in paint or photshop.

Answer 1

the new font needs to be installed into the font file so it can be used in most other programmes. simply download the font you wish to use. ( if it is an exe. it will or should install itself but check for virus etc first) if not simply. find your font (where you downloaded it) find the file named fonts on your hardrive by using the find folder option or (search) then drag the font into this font file. when you reboot your machine the font will be available for use

Answer 2

Have you imported the fonts into Windows?

Assuming you are using Windows XP, try this: After downloading them and extracting the archive, go to Start > Control Panel > Fonts. In Fonts Explorer, click File > Install New Font. Browse to the new fonts and follow the prompts to import them. Close the application you want to see the new fonts in and re-open. The new font should be available now.
