you really dont need to install anything into cs3, all you have to do is download the font and then if you have mac just hit install (i believe its install) and that will go into photoshop and if you have PC then have the font folder open, go to start > my computer > local disk > windows > fonts and drag and drop it into that.... this should automatically put it into photoshop for you
This is the only way I do it and it works for me everytime... |

Hey Bluepawn,
I use 1001 fonts a lot. Here's a link-
http://www.1001fonts.com/
There's plenty of good font sites around (and for free) but let us know if there's something more specific you're after?
Good luck _________________ Matt

Just like mattyboy, I'm a big fan of 1001 fonts as well. It's where I get all my free ones.

Ugh it's not working I downloaded the font and I drag it into photoshop and when photoshop opens it says "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document."
What do I do? What type of document des it need to be?

Hey Bluepawn,
You can't install/import fonts directly into Photoshop, you need to go in through the back door!
I'd recommend installing the font to your system first if you've not done it before. If you're on Windows go to the Control Panel, open up the Fonts option, and click on 'Install New Fonts'. Now navigate to where you saved the font when you downloaded it and make sure you click on it before clicking install.
Now restart Photoshop and your font should appear in the list.
Hope that helps _________________ Matt
