****************************** IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTES ****************************** There are two steps that you must follow to install your new fonts into Microsoft Windows: Step 1: You must install the actual font files into your Windows "system" directory by using the setup program contained on the program disk. Step 2: After the files are installed on your hard drive, you must then access the Windows "Control Panel" to install the fonts into the Windows operating system. Quick instructions for both of these steps are contained in this document. If you need more help, please refer to your product manual for additional details. IMPORTANT: Your new fonts are stored on the program disks in compressed format to save space. Do not try to copy the files manually. The setup program will uncompress and install the font files into your system directory. ****************************** STEP ONE: THE SETUP PROGRAM ****************************** As mentioned above the first step is to install the actual font files on to your hard drive in the system directory. To do so, insert the main program disk into your 3-1/2 inch disk drive on Drive A or Drive B. From Windows "Program Manager" (the first Window that appears on screen whenever you start Microsoft Windows), select the "FILE" menu option on the left side of the menu bar which is located at the top of the screen. A list of menu items will appear. Now select the "RUN" menu item and a text entry box will pop into view. Locate your mouse cursor on the text entry box and click your left mouse button one time to fix the cursor inside the box. If you did everything right, the cursor will change from an "arrow" into a flashing "i-beam". If not, click on the box again until the mouse cursor changes shape. Type the following command to start the Fonts! Fonts! Fonts! setup program: A:\SETUP ( and then press the ENTER key ) Or, if your program disk is located in Drive B, substitute the letter "B" for "A". Do not type any of the text which follows the word "setup". Simply press the ENTER key after the setup command has been entered. At this time, the setup program will begin. Follow the on screen instructions to install the font files on your hard drive. If you need any additional help, refer to the program manual. VERY IMPORTANT! Microsoft Windows will expect to find your font files in the Windows "system" directory. If you installed Microsoft Windows in the default directory location (i.e. you did not change any of the settings during the installation), then C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM will be the default directory where Windows will locate your fonts when it needs them. Press the ENTER key or click your mouse on the "OK" button to install the fonts into C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM. If you installed Microsoft Windows on a different disk drive or in a custom directory of your own choosing, then type in the full path to the "system" directory in the text entry box. Press the ENTER key or click your mouse on the "OK" button to install the fonts. The setup program will now install the font files on your hard drive. When the setup program is over, you will be prompted to create a new Windows program group for Fonts! Fonts! Fonts! Select the "OK" button or press the ENTER key to install this document and the special "True Type Viewer" program into the new program group. *************************************************** STEP TWO: USE CONTROL PANEL TO INSTALL THE FONTS *************************************************** After your fonts are installed on your hard drive, they must be installed into the Windows operating system before they can be used. If this is a confusing notion, then compare your new font files to a tray of freshly baked cookies. They are just out of the oven but you still have to put them on a serving tray before you can eat them. Windows fonts can be added and removed at any time with a special Fonts utility which is found in your Windows Control Panel. Full instructions on how to use the Control Panel Fonts program are contained in your product manual with illustrations. Please refer to your manual at this time. If you are already familiar with the Fonts installation utility, here is a quick summary of the steps which you must follow: 1. Double-click your mouse on the "Main" program group to locate the "Control Panel" icon. 2. Double-click on the "Control Panel" icon. 3. Double-click on the "Fonts" icon. 4. When the Fonts window appears, click your mouse on the "ADD" button. 5. Click your mouse on the "System" subdirectory which appears in the list box in the lower left corner of the Fonts window. 6. Double click your mouse on the name of any font that you want to install. 7. After the font is installed, it will appear in a "Sample" box at the bottom of the Window. If you do not want to use the font, select the "Remove" button. 8. After you install the fonts that you want to use, close all Windows and return to Program Manager.
