How do I upload a font I have to Word?

Question

I bought a font, Born Ready, and I need to upload it to Word. I used to have it in my fonts, but I had to get a new computer. Now, it's not in my account.

Answer 1

To upload a custom font to Word, you first need to install the font on your computer. Once the font is installed, it will be available in Word and other applications. Here are the steps to install a custom font on Windows:

1. Download or locate your custom font files. These often come in .zip folders.
2. If the font files are zipped, unzip them by right-clicking the .zip folder and then clicking Extract.
3. Right-click on the font file and select "Install" from the context menu.
4. The font will now be installed on your computer and available in Word and other applications.

If you have already installed the font on your computer but it is not showing up in Word, you may need to restart Word or your computer to refresh the font cache.

Note that some fonts may not be compatible with Word or other applications. If you are having trouble using a custom font in Word, you may need to consult the font's documentation or contact the font's creator for support.

Answer 2

Hello,

 

Thank you for posting in Q&A forum.

Sure, to add this font into Microsoft Word, please kindly follow below steps:

1.Download the font files. These often come compressed in .zip folders. In one .zip folder, you might find several variations on the same font, such as “light” and “heavy.”

2.If the font files are zipped, unzip them by right-clicking the .zip folder and then clicking Extract. Now you'll see the available TrueType and OpenType font files:

3.The list of fonts in the unzipped file.

Right-click the fonts you want, and click Install.

4.Right-click the font, and click Install.

If you're prompted to allow the program to make changes to your computer, and if you trust the source of the font, click Yes.

5.Your new fonts will appear in the fonts list in Word.
