Altodave Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 I've looked all over for how to install fonts but not found anything.. it seemed obvious, download a font from dafont.com, install into Windows/fonts (using XP here), and the PdN font manager sees the new fonts but they're not in the font choice dropdown within PdN for me to use... what did I miss? please? Apologies for having trouble such a simple thing and thank you for any tips on adding fonts.. this machine has hardly any thank you!

Tarat Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Is the new font showing up in other programs such as Microsoft Word? The Microsoft support site has a how to on installing fonts...might make sure you did it totally right? (Sorry if I sound obvious, but I've made stupid mistakes and missed steps before, so just checking ^_^) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoltBait Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Did you restart Paint.NET after installing the font? Quote Download: BoltBait's Plugin Pack | CodeLab | and a Free Computer Dominos Game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
