Where am i going wrong then?
I download the font, it's a Zip file. So i extract it to C:Windows/Fonts... but nothing appears in that folder and it isnt in my 'Font Selection' on Photoshop?
Cheers in advance :)

Hello m8
You need to extract the folder with the fonts in for example C:\Fonts
Then goto the control panel double click on Fonts and at the top of the menu FILE and the goto INSTALL font select the folder C:\fonts select the files and hey pressto install
Letme know how you got on

My Comp, C Drive, Windows, Fonts (I think)
Download the font, should be a .ttf file and drag that into Fonts folder.

Not sure if that works on Windows. On my Mac, double click -> install and it's done.

All i do is extract the font to the desktop then....
....Go to c:\windows\fonts, click on file, then click install font, go to the desktop in the browser box then select the font file. Installed. Done.
Not all fonts install with the same filename as the downloaded font itself, there is only a handful that ive come across that do, but quite a few dont!
Try that chip

Windows XP - Control Panel - Change to classic view - The open the Fonts section.
Copy and paste the font file into there and you should see blue bar installing the font.
