Your signature font is now added to Windows and is available to all Windows applications. If you had any applications running when you installed your new font, you may have to restart the programs to make the fonts available.
Macintosh - TrueType Fonts Installation
- Open the folder containing your font(s). There may be a PostScript or a TrueType folder or both. Open the folder corresponding to the font type you want to install.
- Double-click your hard drive icon (on your desktop), and, if necessary, open folders, until your System folder is visible.
- Select the contents of either the PostScript or the TrueType folder and drag them on top of the System folder. It is important to select the contents of the folder rather than dragging the whole folder.
- An alert box appears stating the following: "These items need to be stored in the Fonts folder in order to be available to the computer. Put items in the Fonts folder?" Click OK.
Your signature font is now ready to use in all of your applications. If you had any applications running when you installed your new fonts, you will have to restart the programs to make the fonts available.
