I have a TON of them dowloaded but have NO IDEA how to use them.  Is it easy?  Are their Pre-K type directions anywhere?  I would love to use them.  THanks!

I also like the selection at DaFont.  There are a slew of other places to get fonts......just google the words free font download and you'll see what I mean.  :)

As for how to use them.....so simple.  Follow these steps:

(1) Create a folder on your computer called Fonts
(2) Download the fonts you want and place them into the Fonts folder
(3) Unzip each font and put them in the fonts folder, then delete the zip file versions
(4) Go to CONTROL PANEL
(5) Click on FONTS
(6) In the top left corner of that area, click on FILE > INSTALL NEW FONT
(7) Now navigate to the Fonts folder you created and wait a moment while the list is compiled
(8) Once you see all the fonts listed, click on SELECT ALL and then click OK
(9) You will now see a status bar showing your fonts being installed.
(10) Now you may need to close out your program and restart it in order for the new fonts to show up in your character palette.
(11) Once your program is restarted, go to the options bar at the top of the screen and click on WINDOW > CHARACTER
(12) A new palette will show up with all of your installed fonts and options for changing the size and appearance
(13) To use a font, open up your layout and then click on the T tool on the left side of the screen.  You can now click and drag out a text block to begin typing your words.
