    If you close Corel and then go to control panel, fonts and install there, they should then be available to Corel next time you open Corel up.

    Hi Lee,

    Don’t put to many fonts in the Windows Fonts directory, it only takes so many. I think its about 450 or so. If you go above the limit the Windows goes cookoo.

    Use the font navigtor that comes with Corel Draw and search your hard drive for all the fonts that you have. Then install and un-install fonts that way. Or when get some money behind you invest in a proper sign making package. Then you will have loads of professional fonts to choose from.

    Only if you’re running ’95, ’98, ME or NT….XP handles a couple of thousand no bother.
    I have over 4000 installed as windows fonts and it makes not a jot of difference.
