Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do I install a font?
Installing Fonts on a Mac
- Download the font file (usually .otf).
- Locate the file in your Downloads folder.
- Double-click the font file. A preview window will open.
- Click “Install Font” at the bottom of the preview.
- The font will now appear in Font Book and be available in applications like Word, Pages, Photoshop, etc.
Installing Fonts on Windows (PC)
- Download the font file (.ttf or .otf).
- Locate the file in your Downloads folder.
- Right-click the file and select Install (for just your user) or Install for all users (requires admin).
- On older versions of Windows, you may need to choose Control Panel → Appearance and Personalization → Fonts, then drag the file into the Fonts window.
- Once installed, the font will be available in programs like Word, PowerPoint, and Adobe apps.
Quick Notes
- After installation, you may need to restart the program you’re using so it recognizes the new font.
- Fonts installed this way are system-wide, meaning they’ll show up in most apps automatically.
- File types to look for: .otf (OpenType) or .ttf (TrueType).
PNG vs JPG vs SVG?
1. JPG (or JPEG)
- Best for: Photos, images with lots of colors.
- Strengths: Small file size, loads quickly, works everywhere.
- Weakness: Blurry or pixelated if resized too big; doesn’t support transparent backgrounds.
- Think of it as: A printed photo. Looks great, but you can’t peel the background off.
2. PNG
- Best for: Logos, graphics, screenshots, anything that needs a transparent background.
- Strengths: Crisp, clear quality; background can be see-through.
- Weakness: Larger file size than JPG.
- Think of it as: A sticker. You can place it anywhere, and the background disappears.
3. SVG
- Best for: Logos, icons, simple shapes/illustrations.
- Strengths: Can be resized infinitely without getting blurry; tiny file size for simple graphics.
- Weakness: Not ideal for photos; some older programs don’t support it.
- Think of it as: A blueprint. It scales perfectly no matter how big or small you make it.
Quick Cheat Sheet
- Use JPG for photos.
- Use PNG for logos/graphics with transparent backgrounds.
- Use SVG for logos or icons that might need to be scaled to any size (like print + web).
