Find the font file that you downloaded, keeping in mind that it may be contained within a. It's probably located in your downloads folder. If you're satisfied that this is the font you want, click Install at the top left.
Close the Font Previewer, and open your Office program. You should now see your new font included on the font list. Find the font file you downloaded - it likely has a. Double-click on it.
Note: If the font file has a. It will open in the font previewer. Click Install Font. It will open in the Font Book. Close the Font Book. Your font should now be available to Microsoft Office.
When you install a custom font, each font will work only with the computer you've installed it on. Custom fonts that you've installed on your computer might not display the same way on a different computer.
Text that is formatted in a font that is not installed on a computer will display in Times New Roman or the default font. Therefore, if you plan to share Microsoft Office Word, PowerPoint, or Excel files with other people, you'll want to know which fonts are native to the version of Office that the recipient is using. If it isn't native, you may have to embed or distribute the font along with the Word file, PowerPoint presentation, or Excel spreadsheet.

Click OK to finish. The 'Replace with' font selected has to support the locales selected for your system. One would need to type in 'Andale sans UI', because it is not selectable from the drop-down menu. The best one can do currently is to convert them from. The FontForge conversion is very good, but not lossless, with splines the outlines of the font definition being converted from cubic to quadratic splines.
All the hinting, however, will be lost irretrievably. The automated hinting in FontForge for TrueType. What this means is that the converted fonts will be less legible at small sizes, but print quality will not be adversely affected, except on low resolution printers. PDF and PS files generated for on-screen viewing will be affected.
The hinting from cubic splines is not compatible with. If one has a small font less than characters so none of the complex Chinese, Japanese or Korean fonts one can convert the font to a PostScript type one file.
This is a better choice than converting it to. One cannot do this reliably with larger fonts with more than characters or glyphs. To do this, these are the steps:. Yes, to the extent that they resemble TrueType fonts see below.
This may be enough for many users. Part of the value the OpenType format adds is that it allows fonts with better typographic controls, which can support some languages like Indic languages or Arabic that other formats don't support.
OpenOffice 2 doesn't go very far in this direction. A scalable font also known as outline font is a font where the individual characters are stored in vector format.
The curves and lines that the glyph consists of are described relative to each other. This has the advantage that the font can be scaled to any font size without loss of quality.
The scaling has a minor disadvantage as well: At very small font-sizes or zoom-factors, the individual lines may not be drawn properly on a computer monitor because of the monitor's limited resolution.
Since all is scaled down equally, thin lines can 'disappear' because they will be scaled to be smaller than one pixel of your monitor. High-quality fonts include hints for the rendering applications on what strokes and lines are important to recognize the character. The application now knows that it must display these lines and not make them disappear by not scaling them down to a size smaller than a pixel of one's monitor. This is called 'hinting' PostScript-fonts or 'instructing' TrueType fonts.
A rather technical description is available at Fontforge. This is not a problem when printing, since printers usually operate at a much higher resolution than a computer monitor.
A bitmap font also known as raster font is a font where the individual characters are stored by individual pixels — a 'picture' of each character is stored. This has the big disadvantage that the font only looks good at the font sizes for which it was designed. When one chooses a different font-size, the bitmaps need to be scaled, which leads to visible artifacts jagged lines — just the same as when one scales a. This effect is compensated to a small extent by the means of anti-aliasing, but especially at bigger font-sizes the fonts will not look as good as outline scalable fonts.
Characters in a proportional font have different pitches widths. This is generally considered more aesthetic; the width of a small letter 'm' should be much larger than an 'i', for example.
Proportional fonts are also called proportional-pitch fonts. All characters in a fixed-width font have the same pitches widths. This is generally considered less aesthetic, but easier to implement on hardware, beginning with the first typewriters, later on cathode ray tube screens and the first generations of printers. Any character of a fixed-width font occupies exactly the same space on the output medium, like a video screen or a sheet of paper.
That makes formatting much easier. Fixed width fonts tend to be still used for viewing 'plain text', where tables are often created by just lining up the characters, and by computer programmers for programming.
Fixed-width fonts are also called fixed-pitch fonts. By Julie Terberg OpenOffice uses the fonts that are installed in your system.
Download free fonts for Windows and Mac. Fonts are organized by categories such as calligraphy, handwriting, script, san serif and more. Original article and guide published April Note: OpenOffice. After adding or removing fonts, one should regenerate the font-cache of that directory by running How do I add fonts system-wide? Keeping with the example, one would run Where can I find fonts for OpenOffice. What is Font Fallback in OpenOffice. How does Font Fallback work?
OOo uses several ways to find a suitable replacement: Font alias information provided by the system e. One will find the VCL. So what does all these mean? The property describes the list of fonts that could be used instead of Thorndale, when Thorndale is not installed. If one exports the document to a Microsoft Office file format, the font given in in this case 'Times New Roman' would be specified as alternative in the document, if one prints to a PostScript printer, the font would be replaced by 'Times' most likely built-into the printer , when one exports to HTML, it would be specified as a 'serif' font, etc.
How can I configure OpenOffice. If one is unhappy with the replacement that OOo performs, one can override the replacement and define a new one by using Check '[x] Apply Replacement Table' and type in the name of the font to be replaced, and select a font that should be the replacement from the list.
