TrueType and OpenType (Vista), you can drop into the Fonts folder, insde your Windows folder.

If you are using proffesional PostScript fonts, you need a font manager, such as Extensis SuitCase or similar.

Also, if you are planning to add LOTS of fonts, use a font manager, cause having LOADS of fonts in your Windows font folder will slow down your system

the package i got i probably be only using a max of about ten of them and just delete the remainder, when installed will these automatically show up in my video editing software or will i have to put the font bundle into each programme


cheers


 
hey Tayla ..... just wanted to reiterate , Norway is right about the fonts slowing you up .....def delete the ones you don't use

As system fonts, they will show in any program ;) Drop them into Font folder inside your Windows install folder.
10 fonts are fine, even houndred. If you ever plan to install thousand(s), use a font manager, and activate needed fonts at any time ;)
 
thanks for the help guys


these fonts are going no where near gig lappy, as i said there for video editing purposes because what i have now is just the bog standard stuff and these will add something extra to the text


chuck, got a chuckle out of me there, hehe
