Answer 1

dafont.com's fonts are all free and you can use them on any program on your computer once you download them. If you go to dafont.com and click "medieval" under the "gothic" category, there are a whole bunch of fonts that are similar to what you're looking for.

If you choose once of those fonts, here's how to install them:

On a PC, these fonts are zipped. First, unzip them. It's easiest to do this on your desktop first. Then, click on the green Start menu bar on the bottom left hand corner of your screen. Go to My Computer. Then Click on Local Disk (C:) under Hard Disk Drives. Click on the WINDOWS folder. There should be a folder called Fonts. Drag the dafont.com files into there. Once you do that, you can use those fonts in any program on your computer.

On a MAC, unzip the fonts. Open Font Book and click on the little "gear" on the top left hand corner and add your new font.

Hi! Here's a fan site with the Death Note font downloads. I added a Cloister Black download from dafont.com because I know it's safe (...and free!!). I hope this helps:)
And Merry Christmas to you:)
