Help Please
« on: October 30, 2013, 03:39:03 pm »
I am trying to stay busy making patterns and re-doing others.
evidently when I got the new computer I lost the fonts I had down loaded.
There were two that I need ...Black Rose is in Dafont but I forget how to install it
the other is Baseball ...I don't know where that one came from.

Sure would appreciate any assistance.
I'm from North Dakota

Hi Judy,

If you right mouse click on the font a list should appear, near the top it should say install. Just click install.  8)

There are tons of fonts out there dealing with baseball type fonts, but I am unable to find one specifically named baseball.  ???

Here are a few http://www.fontspace.com/category/baseball

WinXP doesn't install like that. For WinXP,
From this site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314960

To install a font, follow these steps:
Click Start, and then click Run.

Type the following command, and then click OK:
%windir%\fonts
On the File menu, click Install New Font.
In the Drives box, click the drive that contains the font that you want to add.

Note The floppy disk drive is typically drive A or drive B. The CD drive is typically drive D.
In the Folders box, click the folder that contains the font that you want to add, and then click OK.
In the List of fonts box, click the font that you want to add. To select more than one font at a time, press and hold the CTRL key while you select each font.
Click to select the Copy Fonts To Fonts Folder check box. The new font is saved in the Windows\Fonts folder.
Click OK.
