I have photoshop version 9.0 and I was wondering how many different types of font there were because I only have 46 different fonts, I thought I had more though I may be wrong.

Doesn't Photoshop just use the installed Windows fonts?

So if you install more fonts you can use them in Photoshop, you can also just doubleclick on them and open them in the font explorer this will also make the font available in the program ;-)

Where would I get more fonts from?


RE: Photoshop by gif83 on 09-15-2006 at 06:45 PM

i'd recommend http://www.dafont.com/

Google!

One last question how do I get the font file onto Photoshop?


RE: Photoshop by gif83 on 09-15-2006 at 06:49 PM

just install as you normally would with windows... photoshop should automatically load them on startup.
edit: so don't forget to restart photoshop


RE: Photoshop by Ezra on 09-15-2006 at 06:49 PM

Like I just said, doubleclick to open the font explorer should do the trick as long as that window is open and for permanent use put it in the Windows/fonts folder.

Well I downloaded a font file clicked on it it showed me a picture of the text then there's two options: Done and print. I click done and then what?


RE: Photoshop by gif83 on 09-15-2006 at 06:52 PM

don't click on it.. just drag it to the the Windows\Fonts folder


RE: Photoshop by Lourix on 09-15-2006 at 06:54 PM

and you dont need to restart photoshop, atleast not in cs2


RE: Photoshop by gif83 on 09-15-2006 at 07:45 PM

o rly? perhaps.. i'm just stuck in my old ways...
I'm sure I had to do it with my CS2 when I recently installed fonts. Maybe i'm just hallucinating :p


RE: Photoshop by Lourix on 09-15-2006 at 08:18 PM

I have to close CS2 before it detects the new font as well.
