Okay Okay, I will admit it, I am a font-a-holic!!
If you are like me, though, most of your fonts are used only in Photoshop (or Illustrator). I have a few extra fonts installed on my system that I use in MS Office, but I didn’t want to have to scroll through the hundreds I use for my scrapbooking. So I went looking for a solution and found one, YAY!!!
You can install fonts to be used in Photoshop and any of your other Adobe programs, and here is how:
-
Goto C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\
-
If you do not have a folder titled Fonts then click New folder to create a new, empty folder and name it Fonts
-
Drag any fonts you want into the folder and select move here or copy here
-
Voilà, your new fonts are ready to use. If your Adobe program was open, then you will need to restart to see any new fonts you have installed
Since I am always finding new and exciting fonts, I keep a shortcut to this folder on my desktop.
