Donwloading and Installing Fonts (Windows XP and Windows 200)

Because fonts work with a PC's operating system, they are not downloaded to Office directly. Use the Font Control Panel in Windows and then it will work with Office automatically.

Many websites offering fonts package them in .zip files to reduce file size and make downloading faster. If you have downloaded a font that is saved in a .zip format, you can "unzip" it by double-clicking the icon for the font and following the instructions on the screen.

Once you have selected a font to install, download it from the internet by following the instructions on the website and install it through the operating system on your pc. Select one of the file download locations, click on the link, and then follow the instructions in the File Download dialogue boxes to complete the download to your hard disk drive. You may also want to make a note of where you have saved the download, so that you can easily navigate to it when you install the font through the operating system. Add the font to your computer through the operating system.
