How do you install fonts on your Mac

Fonts can be installed in several folders in OS X, but we recommend that you do the following:

• Close any open applications. Newly installed fonts may not appear in your menu if you ignore this step.


• Drag and drop the unzipped fonts into the Fonts folder in your user’s Library folder found here:
  /Users/Your_Username_Here/Library/Fonts.


• Note: As of OS Lion, the library folder is hidden from users unless you hold down the Alt/Option key while clicking on the “Go” menu in Finder.

Optional for Mac OS X 10.3 or higher:
