I can't seem to get my fonts to work for a project I'm working on. Anyone know who to install fonts properly on Windows ME?

I've tried that. They're even in the folder, but the fonts aren't being acknowledged by any of the programs that use text.

my friends comp had a problem like that, the only font he had was photoshop large, and it was rediculous- it was becasue his printer could only print that font, so thats the only one that showed up...uninstallign the printer fixed it i think

Start\Control Panel\fonts

All your new fonts need to be placed in that folder. Otherwise...you're just spinning your wheels.

Make sure that you have the current serv pack. There is a font issue loading and crashing the sys on ME.

Like Snaggle said, open your Control Panel and then open Fonts. That will open a new window that shows all you fonts. Click File and then click Install New Font... That will open a new window that will allow you to select the font to install.

The instructions are pretty much the same for all Windows, of course as a** backwards as ME is

, it just might be different.
