    To use the fonts:
    Copy all the font files (the *.ttf and *.otf files) in to the windows Font folder. By default it's: C:\Windows\Fonts.

    Once they've finished installing, you should see the fonts in all your programs!

    EDIT: And I don't see any reason why you can't have more than one position... actually having 2 would mean you're better!

    C:/windows/fonts
    Just copy the fonts into that folder.
    Dont worry about the typesetting on the drawings.
    Just stroke the text with white, and after you typeset it, just redraw the image behind it, or leave the redrawing to someone else.

    What version of Windows are you using?
    In Win7 and probably in Vista when you open the ttf files it shows the font and there is a button saying "Install".
    In WinXP I remember I did it through Control Panel->Fonts and there somewhere...
    BTW: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=how+to+install+fonts+on+windows+xp
    I hope I helped.^^

    That's just what I don't get. I found the place in the computer to download the fonts, but it's not on a drive. Is it supposed to be? Huh

    So, do this: Create a folder on your desktop name it fonts.
    download the fonts into that folder. usually its an archive for eg. .rar or .zip, so you need to extract them. If its zip file doubleclick it and a zip extractor will start up. If its rar file you should first install winrar or other extracting software.
    After you extracted them you will probably see a folder with the name of the fonts you downloaded, inside them usually you find the fonts and copyright and or credits text file.
    So if you have windows XP or Vista you should read this:
    http://www.ascendercorp.com/support/windows/
    its a step by step guide.
    If you have Win7 doubleclick one by one on every .ttf file and install it from the appearing window by pressing the Install button.

    note that, maybe you need admin rights to install fonts.

    Hope this helps.
