Dumb Question, but how do you load fonts from a website to hard drive
in Microsoft Windows? I thought I used to know but can't seem to get them to work.

Thank you.

if it's *.ttf, just download directly to C:\Windows\fonts (right-click, "save as", select fonts folder in the Windows directory); if it's zipped, extract to C:\Windows\fonts.

2. Thanks. Just as I suspected, I'm locked out of the folder.

3. Ah. Work machine, eh?
You might want to ask the office IT guy to load whichever fonts it is you need, then (you need administrative privileges to modify the contents of the fonts folder).
