Supplying Fonts: Windows

Unless you use a font management program, all the fonts are in the Windows fonts folder on the root, or "C:\" drive. Create a folder called Fonts in the same directory as your document. Open the Windows fonts folder (usually c:\windows\fonts). Select the fonts you need. Right click on the selected items, then select Copy. Open the Fonts folder you made in the same directory as your print document, right click inside this folder and select Paste. The fonts should appear in the new folder.

If you are using a font management program like ATM Deluxe or Suitcase, the fonts will be located in folders elsewhere on the hard drive. Find the folder(s) and copy the fonts to a new Fonts folder located in the same folder as the document.

Type-one Adobe fonts have two files for each font: the bitmap (screen font) and the printer (outline) font. It is important to supply both parts of the font. Truetype fonts, on the other hand, have only one file. Be sure to supply all of the font family (i.e. regular, bold, and italic).

Supplying Fonts: Macintosh OS 10

Unless you use a font management program (such as Suitcase or Font Reserve), all fonts are located in one of the Library folders. There is one main Library folder, and one for each user account on the computer. The easiest way to find the required fonts is to perform a search for the font name. Create a folder called Fonts in the same folder as your document. Copy the fonts from the Library folder(s) into your newly created Fonts folder.

If you select the font and drag it to the new folder, it will move the file rather than copy it. Holding "Option" and dragging the font to its new location will copy it and leave the original font in the System folder.

If you use a font management program such as Font Reserve or Suitcase, the fonts will be located in folders elsewhere on the computer. Find the folder(s) and copy the fonts to a new Fonts folder in the same place as your document.

Supplying Fonts: Macintosh OS 9 or lower

Unless you use a font management program (such as Adobe Type Manager), all fonts are in the System folder. Create a folder called Fonts in the same folder as the document. Close all open applications. Open the System folder and there will be a folder called Fonts. Copy the fonts from the System folder to the new folder you created.
