Installing Fonts on Windows XP

Post by Mike Jackson »

Hi all,
Larry White called today asking how to install the font from our Centennial Collection. I told him to go to the Control Panel and click on the Fonts folder, then "install font". Well, on Windows XP the folder is not immediately visible. You must switch the view in XP's control panel to "Classic View" to see the Fonts folder. After that, all else is the same as in earlier versions of Windows.

Thanks to Larry for purchasing a CD and also for letting me know about the change in the interface. I am still on Windows 2000.
