1.
 

The installation part of this lesson is meant for Windows 7 users.

Click here to open dafont.com in your web browser.

Now start browsing the categories or search for the font you wish to have.

I decided to check the fonts under category Fancy and subcategory Distorted.

 
 
2.
 

When you find the font you like, just click it.

 
 
3.
 

In the Custom preview box, put the word or words to see how it looks like written in that very font and press Enter or click Submit.

I typed dreevoo, liked what I've seen and decided to download it.

 
 
4.
 

Click Download to download the font.

 
 
5.
 

Click Save file and OK.

It's similar in all known web browsers.

 
 
6.
 

Double click the zip file to open/extract it.

 
 
7.
 

Double click the extracted file.

 
 
8.
 

And click Install to actually install the font on to your computer.

 
 
9.
 

Now open Photoshop or any other programs that use fonts and find the newly installed font.

Mine is Sex Pistols.

 
 
10.
 

This is how it looks like if type 'dreevoo rox my world' :)

Enjoy your new fonts!
