first, try right clicking and going to open with, then select the compresses (zipped) folders option, unzipping it. When done open to make sure you did it right, then goto control panel, and go to the top left corner, and look for "switch to classic view" (if not already done), then select fonts. When the fonts window is open, goto the unzipped fonts, in the folder you unzipped, and drag them onto the fonts window, and it should atimatically install the fonts for you.

unzip your contents onto a folder called Fonts in your System folder. First goto to the drive containing the Windows folder

Windows->System->Fonts.

This will enable you to use the fonts for all applications.

Once your fonts are installed they then become available for any programs you have on your PC that use fonts.

acceptable click and extract the folder. Do a seek on your Fonts folder (Vista x64 it is in C:WindowsFonts). Drag and drop them in there. initiate up this technique you prefer to apply them in and that they must be there.
