I found this article at www.huffingtonpost.com and thought it might be useful for most people. Now that the CRICUT EXPLORE and SILHOUETTE CAMEO both can import fonts into their software programs. If you do not have either of these machines I have a shipping list at the bottom of this page where you can purchase these machines! I thought this would be useful information for those of us that like out fonts to match out projects PERFECTLY.....I know that "some" of us exist....not saying I am one of those people. **SIGH***. I love this article since not only did they do a great job finding the links, but they also give great details on how to save the files. You can find the original article at:
The (free!) typefaces below may not have a place in many graphic designers' playbooks -- see this list for some of those -- but that doesn't erase their novelty factor for us.
To install a new font on any Mac with OS X 10.3 or above, simply double-click the file once it's finished downloading and click "install." You may also place the file into the folder "Users/[Your Name]/Library/Fonts."
Windows computer users will have to extract the font files beforehand by double-clicking the .zip file to expand it. With version 8, 7 or Vista installed, you'll then be able to simply right click and select "install." More details on downloading and installing your brand new fonts are available here.
In the meantime, here are those famous (and free!) fonts you'll want to start using immediately:
