Open File Explorer and go to C:WindowsFonts. Find the font that you used in your presentation (e.g., Lobster Regular). Right-click the font and select Properties. Remove the Read-only attribute if it’s checked, and then click OK. Go to the folder that has just been extracted, select the fonts you want to install or use the key combination “Ctrl” + “A” if you want to install all the fonts in the downloaded font set. Right click and select “Install”. Step 4: Open Powerpoint and use new fonts.

After you find a font that you would like to use with an Office application, you can download it and install it through the operating system that you are currently using on your computer. Because fonts work with the operating system, they are not downloaded to Office directly.
Many third parties outside of Microsoft package their fonts in .zip files to reduce file size and to make downloading faster. If you have downloaded a font that is saved in .zip format double-click the zip file to open it.
Install a custom font you have downloaded
Once you’ve downloaded the font you want to install you need to install it in the operating system. Once the font is properly installed in the operating system Microsoft Office will be able to see and use it.
Find the font file that you downloaded, keeping in mind that it may be contained within a .zip file. It’s probably located in your downloads folder.
Double-click the font file to open it in the Font Previewer
When you are satisfied that this is the font you want, click Install at the top left.
Close the Font Previewer, and open your PowerPoint. You should now see your new font included on the font list.
Welcome to my first Tutorials for Teachers blog post! I have a passion for teaching myself, kids, and adults. With this blog series, I’ll be sharing what I’ve learned with y-o-u.
Today I will be sharing how to install and use fonts. Why is this important? Well…

It’s no secret I am font obsessed. I notice fonts everywhere: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Unfortunately I have passed this on to my friends, family, and even my teacher teammates! It’s always been easy to convince them to try out my favorite fonts since KG Fonts are free for personal use!
But you know what that means…”Lauren, how do I use them? They won’t show up! Where is the font?!”
I also get asked how to install fonts by teachers who purchase my editable resources on Teachers Pay Teachers. Thus, a picture tutorial! (And the last time I have to type this out. 😉 )
I will be sharing how to install and use fonts on a MAC because that is what I use. If you are on a PC, Kimberly has a great tutorial here.
