51 Unique And Creative Designer Fonts: Instructions Included

Posted on 07. Jul, 2009 by Shawn Ramsey in Resources

Finding the perfect font isn’t always an easy task. You can rarely rely on the standard default pack of fonts that Adobe Photoshop offers out of the box. Sure they have a lot of options, but remember this is the same list that everyone else who owns the program has at their disposal as well.

In this roundup, I have hand-picked a variety of 51 fonts that could be used for many different styles of design. While they are all free to download, you’ll want to read over any included author descriptions to see if they are available for commercial use.

Lets start with the list and follow-up with how to install them at the end.

Here’s how to install them for use in Photoshop

1. Find your local fonts folder on your computer. You can find it by going to Computer> OS(C:) > Windows >Fonts. If you have trouble locating it, just do a search for the term “fonts” within your OS.

2. After downloading the font that you have chosen, simply drag it into the local fonts folder.

3. If you don’t immediately see the font available for use, try restarting Photoshop.
