disney fonts?

I have some Disney fonts saved but can't use them. I even forget where I got them from. I know I found them from someone here. Anyone have any suggestions on where to get them and then how to use them? Need them quickly!

Re: disney fonts?

Try www.disneyfonts.com . While we're on the subject, does anyone know what font the Magic Kingdom logo that they use on the guide maps is? Its sort of a calligraphic font, but I can't seem to find it anywhere for free.

Answered my own question

Ok, I found another great site with free fonts. Its http://www.disneyexperience.com. I recommend using the Html version of the site, but if you have flash and like that sort of thing, go for it. There is a nice selection of disney fonts, and the one for Disneyland does nicely for both the Magic Kingdom logo, and for PhilharMagic.

Re: disney fonts?

I've tried the sites you all suggest but can't get them open. They are zipped. What do I do now?

Re: disney fonts?

Hi Gina! If you go to the post that lists the link for Wonderful Fonts - on that same page, they will give you a step by step on how to unzip the fonts. You have to download WinZip but you can do this free. If you follow the steps, you should be able to use all the fonts that you downloaded.

BTW, I am in no way a computer wiz - I asked the same question not too long ago and followed these instructions and did it!!

Good luck!

Re: disney fonts?

Were you able to figure it out Gina?

Or do you still need some help?

Re: disney fonts?

I did download the winzip but can't get it to work. A few years ago I had to do the same thing when I purchased some fonts online. It wasn't with this computer though. I can't remember what to do.

Re: disney fonts?

Gina,

Here is what I do.

When you click to save, I store in My Documents. I go into My Documents and open the zipped file. When it is open, I highlight the file and press "Extract" and it will ask you where to store it. Make sure it goes in c: drive, Your operating system - file might be called WinNT, Windows, etc. In those files is one called "Fonts". That is where you want to unzip it to. Make sure it has that as the location and press "unzip". I usually reboot when I have installed all that I'm going to do. Then open Word (or whatever you use) and the font will be there.

I only use the free ones. I never pay for any and it works every time.

Give that a try and let me know if it works or where you get stuck.

Heidi

Re: disney fonts?

For some reason it keeps coming up that this is not a free service. I have to purchase it or use the evaluation version. I click use the evaluation version but then I still can't get it to work.

Do you think I should uninstall it and reinstall it again?

Gina

Re: disney fonts?

There is the possibility that you are installing ones you have to pay for. Did you go to the site I recommended? I downloaded lots of them for free. Try Aladdin. It is free and I got it working no problem.
