    This should go in Softwar section or whatever it is called.

    1. Unzip font
    2. Goto control settings
    3. Goto fonts
    4. Move the TTF file into fonts folder
    5. Restart PS and it should be there

    +Rep appreciated if I helped.

    if u just d/l the file.. then unzip it to c:/WINDOWS/fonts its quicker.. and u dont need to restart PS.. u just then choose view files...

    personally what i did it just highlight my 4,000 fonts from the pack.. then pressed ctrl + c and pasted into fonts folder..

    I do something different, because it will save you lots of lag. First I open the folder that the font file is in. If its on the desktop, then I dont open anything. Then I open C:\Windows. I then drag the font file on top of the font folder, and release. It will then install the font. I think this is a much better idea, because if you have lots of fonts, you are gonna have to wait for all your fonts to load, if you opened the Fonts folder.
