Iokharic Script Font

[DMINGW00TISAWSOME]

ummm... how do i use these as a font on a text editor program? i use open office, so would that mean i cant use these?

No - I use OO, and I have no problems.

1) Take the font out of the .zip file and place it on the desktop.
2) Right-click and choose "install"

After that, you should be able to delete the font file, though you should probably check if it works first.

Siberys, the only thing I can say is...

Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Iokharic font works great for me, as do the Elvish and Dwarven fonts. I've been spending a lot of time searching the web for how to create fonts, just to make the Iokharic script into one! You've saved me a tremendous amount of time, energy, frustration, and not to mention money (font creation programs are pricey!)

You get yourself a :cookie:

DMINGW00TISAWSOME, that really depends on what operating system you're using.

Vista: Extract the font files (.ttf) and right click on them, select "Install" and hit OK on the confirmation prompt.
Pre-Vista: Extract the font files (.ttf) and drag them into your Windows\Fonts folder
Mac OS: http://www.myfonts.com/support/help_install_mac.html - instructions for all the Mac OS's.
Linux: http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/installing-fonts-linux - instructions for Linux OS (using KDE in example shown)

Hope that helps.

Actually, it was easy. I use an evaluation version of fontcreator and an enlarged picture of the font. Then just copy, paste, and space each character.

thanks! that explains why it wasn't working- siberys (no fault of his[rhyme]) gave me the instructions for windows vista. thanks again.
