Microsoftย PowerPointย usersย canย use the fontsย provided by Microsoft Windows but also their ownย fonts downloaded fromย Internet.ย In particular, usingย customย font types is an alternative chosen by experienced designers,ย or ifย you need to installย a commercial font type after purchasing it online. This article will help you to learn how to install fonts in Microsoft PowerPoint.
To install aย new font type inย Windowsย and be able toย use it on Microsoft PowerPointย mustย carry out a serie of steps inย Windows.
First of allย we must openย Controlย Panelย and then open Appearance andย Personalization.
Thenย go to the Font optionย and click onย the File menu.ย Here we can seeย the Install Newย Font option and we should click there.
Thenย we click on the drive letter and chooseย the pathย where you downloaded theย new font to install.ย Weย will see theย list of available fontsย to be installedย andย weย select.ย Finallyย we pressย the Install button andย theย fonts areย installed on your system.
Thenย againย we must open (or re-open) Microsoft PowerPointย and fontsย availableย for useย in our presentations.
An important detail that we must remember from this point isย that whileย fonts are installedย on your computer,ย if you laterย transfer the PPTย fileย to another computerย itย might notย have installedย the same fonts using in our presentation, soย be carefulย what font types are used and test the PowerPoint presentation after moving to another computer.
Installing fonts in PowerPoint is easy, you just need to follow the previous steps and voila.
