How to Download a Font

This video is kind of hard to understand, which is why we are making another one soon, but for now, just try to follow along with the video and use this description:

Website: http://www.dafont.com

1. Go to the website.
2. Browse/Search for the font of your choice.
3. Go to the extreme right of the font name and click "Download PC / Mac OS X".
4. Save it as the name of your choice.
5. Open up to wherever you saved it, but do NOT open the zipped file!
6. Right click the zipped file and click "Extract files".
7. Extract to the file of your choice.
8. This time, do open the font file, which is now unzipped.
9. You will see the font file and a readme .txt. Don't worry if you don't see the readme.txt, it's not important.
10. Open up your control panel and click on "Fonts".
11. Click and drag the font to the "Fonts" folder and you're done!
12. To test it, just open a word document and look for it.
