To work in windows XP the font will most likely be in true type format, the file you downloaded should have a. TTF extension, for example impact. TTF, just copy this file into the the C:\Windows\FONTS directory and it will then be seen by the windows system. Some fonts use. FON extension, if so copy this to the same directory.

If it has some exe installation,click and confirm. Not an exe? Then go to control panel and transfer the font file in it,like a normal trasportation of files. Doing this,the file font will be installed,and all the compatible programs will be functional in using that font. Remember,do not install to much fonts!

Open an explorer window and navigate to the Fonts folder in your Windows directory (usually located at C:\WINDOWS\Fonts). Next open another explorer window where your downloaded font is saved. Just copy and paste the font file into the Fonts folder and it should install automatically.
