The choice of fonts in almost all application programs (text editors, graphics, tables, etc.) depends on the set of fonts installed on your operating system. When you add or remove fonts from your OS Fonts folder, they are also excluded or added to the application selection lists. Therefore, to add a new font, for example, in Word, it is enough to install it in Windows.

Instructions

Step 1

If you received a new font in a packed form (zip, rar, 7z, etc.), then before installing, unpack it somewhere on the media of your computer.

Step 2

Expand the menu on the Start button and launch the Control Panel. Select the "Appearance and Themes" section in it, and then on the left side, find and click the "Fonts" link. This will launch Windows Explorer, which will open the system folder containing all the fonts installed on your computer.

Step 3

In the Explorer menu, open the "File" section and select "Install Font".

Step 4

As a result, a dialog box will open in which you need to select the drive and the folder where the installed font is located (the folder should be double-clicked). The program will scan the specified folder and a list of found names will appear in the "List of fonts" window. Select the fonts you want from them. You can select several fonts located in different parts of the list by clicking each next while holding down the CTRL key. Or you can select a group located between two lines of the list - for this you need to click the first font of the group, then scroll the list to the last one in the group and click it while holding down the SHIFT key. If you uncheck the "Copy fonts to the Fonts folder" checkbox, the files will remain in the same place, and if not, then copies will be created in the system folder, and you can delete the original files.

Step 5

Click the "OK" button to start the installation process. Upon completion, the installed fonts will become available in application programs. True, some of them will require a restart for this.
