I downloaded a font, now what?

I'm not exactly sure what to do with it. Do I extract the files to a certain folder so I can use the font? If so, what folder?

And also, is there anyway you could change the entire font on your computer? Just as if you jailbreak your iPhone, and then go from there. Is it possible?

Install it…

I'm assuming windows here, since you didn't specify. If you open the control panel and search "fonts" you should get a result that opens a folder. Extract the font into this folder and it will be available in Microsoft Office and other programs.

As for part 2, I'm not aware of any way to swap the entire font family used on the system.

If the fonts are in an archive (zip or rar) then extract the contents and put them in the C:\Windows\Fonts folder.

If the fonts you downloaded is in an EXE format then execute (run by double-clicking) it to install the fonts by itself to the proper location.

  • What is this font? Jailbroken iPhone using BytaFont? I was searching fonts on google images and this picture came up… I followed the link but I can't find a font name anywhere! What is this font? It SHOULD be a Byta Font font but it looks like this picture was posted last year sometime so I'm not so sure. Thanks!
  • What font is being used on this webpage? I have been looking for this font for a long time and still haven't found it. http://media.kcchiefs.com/players/active-roster/chiefs_playerlist_iphone.aspx It's the font that they use in the players names. They also use it in their logo, so I don't know if it's strictly customized or if their is something similar to it or what. If you find out the name of the font or something similar please feel free to give me a heads up! ~ Thanks, Josh
