Install Fonts
This guide will help you install fonts on your computer.
Install fonts for Windows
To install fonts, it is usually easiest to go to Google Fonts: Browse Fonts - Google Fonts
Alternatively, you can google the name of the font.
When you have found the font that you want.
Click on “Get font” and then “Download All”
In your downloaded files you will now find a zip file of the font. Make sure to select the folder, right-click it and then click on “Extract all”
This will now extract the files from the compressed zip file.
Once you have opened the now extracted contents you need to find the “TrueType” file.
Open the “True-Type” file and you will be greeted with a big example page of the font.
To install, just click install marked in yellow.
If you would like to look at the different variants, i.e. cursiv, bold etc. Click next up in the right corner. Marked in red. Note that the picture is in Swedish, the layout will be unaffected.
After clicking on install, you can check that it has succeeded by starting for example word and checking that the font is in the list.
If the install button does not work. Make sure that the zip-file has been extracted.
Now you are done!
Extra sections if the font doesn't show up in Adobe Acrobat
If the font does not exist in Adobe Acrobat after installation, this may be because it is not in Adobe's own fonts folder. It should be there, but there have been times when it doesn't.
Navigate to c:\program files\common files\adobe\ where there is a folder called "Fonts".
If the "Fonts" folder doesn't exist, create one called exactly "Fonts" and then drag in the font file you installed above. Then restart Adobe Acrobat and it should work.
If there is a folder called "Fonts", just pull in the installation file and it's done.
