Having a Mac download issue - trying to download fonts...


Recommended Posts

I'm trying to download some free fonts. If I save it to disk then try to open it, I get a bunch of symbols. The other option is to open it (it's a stuffit thing) and when I do that I get the symbols also.

 

How do I do this stuffit expander stuff without it being jibberish??

if the font files download in a zip archive, stuffit does need to expand them. however, once unstuffed you do not open font files; you simply drag them to the font folder. note, there are a number of font folders on a Mac. you probably want to place it in the library on the hard drive so that the fonts can be used by any user account. there are also font folders in the library for individual accounts; if you place the fonts there only that user will see them.
