I can't find the font when i try to download it in the fonts folder in the control panel :/

[mcvdigital]

@JonasBrosLuv6

remember you right-click it and go to install new font, you dont just copy and paste it.

then you look for it in the drop down menu (look for the folder were you saved it. when you click/open the folder the font should be in the white box above the drop down menu).

If its not working its because you havent upzipped it. Remember, right-click, 'Extract All'.

MCV.
