okay whatever you save it in you have to remember.

-click on SAVE FONT on the right hand side
-after that, a box will come up telling you to pick a place you want to save it in. i would suggest making a new folder and putting it in my documents
-after that, open up the program you want to use the font with. example-paint, word, etc etc.
-once that is open & you're ready to go, go to my documents, the folder where you saved your font, & open it
-there will be two icons usually. one will just be a read through, but one will actually open the font itself. it will have an example of what the font looks like. usually a bunch of random sentences. keep that one open!
-start typing in whatever program you're using & search for the font on the text toolbar. [the place where you pick what font you use].
-when you're all done, save whatever & then you can close it.

if you don't keep the font document open, you won't be able to use the font.

-hope that helped!♥

Here is a tutorial. Please beware that if you add a whole lot of fonts it can crash your computer. It takes a lot to do that though. I have mine in a folder and was told I could use them directly from the folder without adding them, haven't figured that one out yet though. :)

Thanks for the info xomegaroni! I think your instructions are what I was looking for! :)
