Install a font from another computer?
Hello all. I have a lot of cool fonts on my other computer. But, I got a
new laptop, and my new laptop doesn't have a lot of cool fonts. So, what I wanted to know is if there was a way of copying fonts from one computer to another? Is there any way I can do this? Thanks! |

Quick&(very)dirty solution: copy the .ttf files in the fonts folder to the other pc. Clean solution: Make a copy of the Windows Fonts folder on your laptop. Don't call it "fonts". Go to Control Panel - Fonts and click File - Install new font. Browse to the copy of your fonts folder and follow the on-screen instructions. |

Fonts are just files. License issues aside, you can copy the files to a
floppy or CD and then copy them from the floppy/CD to your Windows Fonts folder or open Control Panel | Fonts and use File | Install New Font to select and install the files from the floppy/CD. -- Suzanne S.
