Fonts installed but not displaying

Hello Kirsty,

Problem using the newly installed fonts has a lot of causes. One example is the font was not installed properly. To isolate the issue, can you answer the below questions:

• Are you getting any error messages?
• If yes, can you include a
  screenshot?
• Have you tried dragging the Futura LT font to the Font File folder? (Go to Fonts (Control Panel) and drop the Futura LT font)
• Have you installed the Font before? If yes, try the below steps

• Go to C:\Windows\Fonts using File Explorer.
• Find the font file and open it to preview the font.
  
• In the preview window click Install on the top right corner and you’ll reinstall the font manually.

We are eager on getting this resolved for you, we will wait for your feedback.

 

Installing OpenType Font

I am using Windows 10 on a Toshiba Satellite laptop. I purchased some specialized fonts to use in Adobe Illustrator. The directions I found online regarding installation say install them in the Fonts folder in Windows first.

I followed the steps but the Fonts drag and drop box will not accept them. Any suggestions?
