Font in Photoshop..

12-05-2005

I've downloaded the fonts I want to use, but I can't figure out how to get them to work in Photoshop, or anywhere else for that matter. Enlighten me, pretty please with a cherry on top? x_X

Just copy the font file into your Windows/fonts directory and then they will be usable in every application in Windows. This is, of course, asuming you use Windows.

It says it is already in use and tells me to wait till it's not anymore. o_O;

Oh, that's interesting... maybe try to reboot and try again?

Stupid Windows. Maybe if you sacrifice some small animal in the name of Bill Gates.

Yeah, a reboot should definitely fix the problem. (Definitely, if you have Windows XP, possibly, if you have Windows NT, maybe, if you have Windows 98, and God help you, if you have Windows 95

). Else, you could try the sacrifice thingie. O____-o'

I have XP, and I just rebooted. e.e *slaps computer* Stupid piece of junk. Any other ideas? ;3;

Usually that happens with me.. so ill go into windows >> fonts and highlight ALL fonts go to view and refresh.. and then restart photoshop and it should then work. If it dosent Id delete the font.. restart your comp.. re download it and then do the refresh this for caution and then restart PS again and hopefully itll work.. did that make sense?

It. Still. Doesn't. Work. x_X *throws a tantrum* I did everything all you guys said, and it refuses to work. D=

Bah! Guess your fonts are corrupted, then. Try downloading them again.

I agree with Heruka, downloads are probably corrupted. Try a redo. Do you use a font manager or do it yourself? I am running XP SP2 and from time to time would have problems, but since I began using manager things have really looked up. The manager I use will let me know after an unzip if the fonts are corrupted. Good luck!

yeah probably kurrupt, erase it restart and download again and install it again and restart again..
