Techer Treat - Happy October

The October posts are going to focus on teachers' fun with technology. The first treat comes from a Web 2.0 resource. FONTS- http://www.ffonts.net/ Here you will find numerous free fonts to download to Microsoft Word. Play it safe and only install 3 of your absolute favorites. Many of these fonts are decorative and/or great to use once.

Visit the site and find something you like
Download
Save to a folder in the "ThawSpace" (I have a folder named fonts)
Once saved . . . Right click on "Font" go down to "extract all "
Set location of extracted files to go (ThawSpace)-click extract To open new file-
Right click on "True Type Font File" and go down to install- . . . continue

I leave the creative font in the folder in my thaw space and when I need something different I install the font. Create, print, save as a PDF. Other computers will not recognize creative fonts. Remember, play safe and have fun. Happy October.
