Fonts opens a folder containing the installed fonts on your system. Use the File menu to install new fonts, double-click on a font to see what it looks like or print out a sample, and use the View menu to group fonts according to similarity.

Notes

  • When you are installing fonts from a mapped network drive, if you deselect the option “Copy fonts to Fonts folder,” then you can add fonts to your system without having them occupy disk space on your local drive.

  • You can also drag a font into the Fonts window to install it.
