KoalaGirl Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Hi everyone. Is there a way I can increase the selection of fonts in the above program? Will any new fonts added to my pc, show up in AP.Thanks for any advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustpuuppy Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 Found this."Design-Pro 5 just uses any of the fonts installed on your machine-- just ask your IT person/people to install it (if within company policy).As for unzipping file- you can easily do that at home with a program like 7-zip (but installing it may be a question for the IT people--- if there are any company policies/"safeguards" in place).You don't mention OS- but any Windows versions I can think of just copy font files to Windows> Fonts on your C drive (or you can "install them" under Contraol Panel> Fonts)."If this guy is correct, just adding the fonts to windows should add them to Avery as well.

KoalaGirl Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 Thanks Dustpuppy, now that I know it *can* be done, I'll give it a try! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairieannie Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 The easiest way to install an unzipped font is to drag it from wherever you unzipped it right into the font folder in your control panel. It will automatically install immediately! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KoalaGirl Posted November 27, 2009 Author Share Posted November 27, 2009 I installed to my desktop {easy to find that way}, unzipped it, and saved it to my font folder. It installed automatically. Any yes, the new fonts do show up in AP. EASY PEASY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Speaking of new fonts, can anyone recommend one of those free font sites? I'm getting tired of my fonts and want some new ones. I also have the Design Pro. Can I download a font from the site and save it to the font folder in my control panel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
