    After downloading, did you open properties on the zip file, and unblock it, then extract it?
    Have you tried right clicking the font and choosing "Install" like I posted above?

    Also open up NotePad, choose "Format" in menu bar, then "Font",
    then scroll and see if you can find your new font.

    Cliff. I had tried this as well. Very strange. I tried both methods again on a number of fonts; nothing happened and then I tried another and it started to install them. Something unblocked. Anyway thank you very much for your very prompt advice. Mark

    To unblock you need to right click the zip file, choose properties, and in the general tab, bottom right corner will be an option to unblock(if it hasn't been already), check that, click apply, then close properties, and then extract.

    Not in zip file


    No these were just TTF files in an ordinary folder. Any way they are installed now.
