Installing Fonts

Now if you're anything like me, you have all these wonderful fonts and no idea how to add them to your computer to actually use them. Fear not, I'll explain it!

For Mac: 
1. In Finder, open your downloads folder and open the zip file of the font by clicking on it

2. Also in Finder find the Font folder in your Library


3. Drag your font into the font folder! Easy.
Now your font will be available to use in any application, like Pages or Keynote

For Windows 7:
1. The easiest way to install a font is to double-click on a font file to open the font preview and select 'Install'.
2. You can also right-click on a font file, and then select 'Install'.
