Fonts..?

[Invader Z]

Ok so i add the fonts that I download to the fonts file (C/Windows/fonts) , but i cant find them on Photoshop, or Open Office!! any help?

(I've been having trouble with themes and recourses on my computer, i am using windows XP home, but my dad got me XP Pro from his work, should I just do an update, or new install [will this wipe out my PC or will i still have some of the files] )

(My PC is also really slow,and about 3-4 years old, and i think somethings wrong with the files and registry )

Any help is appreciated! I posted here because its mainly about font and themes , Thanks!

It's C:\Windows\Fonts.

I found I had to either open the font file (which should say "quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" in the font) or restart the application I wanted to see the font in and it would work.

Try getting something like the linotype font explore (don´t know if there is a pc version, but some kind of font managing software!) - it´s easyer to manage fonts aaaaand blablablabla the comuters speed dos not get draged down so much (if you ever installed a lot of fonts at once you´ll know what i mean)

Or just get the hell off Windows XP. That problem is solved in Vista, and all problems are solved in 7.

Yeah, I will soon. My computer is old and I've been saving up for a new one with 7 or Vista already on it.

Set up a shortcut to C:\WINDOWS\Fonts, and then drag-and-drop the fonts into that. It should install them properly, meaning they show up straight away in Photoshop.
