Font Vista For Mac Os
- Before installing your fonts, quit all active applications.
- Locate the fonts you want to install on your hard-drive or go to the location you downloaded the fonts to. Each font package or collection will be in its own folder.
- Install your fonts in the System Folder:Fonts folder by moving or copying all the font files from their individual font folders into the System Folder:Fonts folder. For PostScript Type 1 fonts, this includes both the outline font files (red An icons) and the font suitcases. Often a family of outline fonts will be associated with a single font suitcase. OpenType .otf fonts are single-file fonts and do not include font suitcases.
- The fonts are now installed and will appear in the font menus of your applications.
