Help Saving and Using Fonts!

All fonts used to create letters on LettersnStuff.com are available for you to download.

Click on the word Fonts on the left menu (under "Featured Stuff") to go to the font page!

You must have a font on your computer AND have it correctly added to Incredimail for it to show in your letter!

And you must have a font on your computer to see it in an email or on a webpage or to use it in and EML / Outlook Express letter!

To Save a Font:

Right Click on the name of the font and in the box that pops up select "Save Target As"
Then Use the arrow (after where it says "Save in") to locate your desktop.
Click the "Save" button and let the font download.

Next Use your Start menu to open Windows Explorer and scroll down to the "Windows" folder in the left window.
Click on the + before it and look for the "Fonts" folder. Click on it once and you'll see your fonts in the right side of the window.

Right click on the font on you saved to your desktop and select "Cut",
Click on the font folder and on the top toolbar go to "Edit" and "Paste".

You might need to "activate" the fonts for them to work. If this is the case use Windows Explorer and go to the Font file. Find the new font in the left window and double click on it to open it.
Use the X to close the font.
Do the same for any newly added fonts.

To Add a Font to Incredimail:

After saving the font and using Windows Explorer to cut and paste it into the Font Folder, you'll need to add it to the list of fonts in Incredimail.

To do this, open Windows Explorer and find "Program Files" in the left window
Click on the + before Program Files and look for IncrediMail folder
Click on the + before IncrediMail then click directly on the "Data" folder.

In the right window you'll see a text (.txt) file named "Fonts".
Double click this file to open it!
KEEP THIS DOCUMENT OPEN!!

Using Windows Explorer, scroll down to the "Windows" folder. Click on the + before it and look for the Fonts folder in the left window.
Click on it once and you'll see your fonts in the right side of the window.
To open a font double click on it.

At the top of the open font file look for where it says "Typeface Name".
Type that name in your Incredimail font document EXACTLY as it is written!
You'll have to do this for every font you want to add to Incredimail!
When you're done, click "File" and "Save" and close the font document.

To Change a Font, Font Size or Color:

In Incredimail: Click anywhere in the body of your new message.
At the top of the New Message window you will see the name of the font typed in the first box to the left. After the font there is an arrow.
Use the arrow to select another font to use!

To change the size of the font, use the arrow after the size (displayed after the name of the font). You can make the font larger or smaller!

To change the font color, click on the "A". Then click on the color you want and ok.

In Outlook Express: Open a new message or reply to a message. Click anywhere in the body of the message.

On the top toolbar click Format and then Font.
Use the arrow after the font name to select a different font.

In the Size Box, click the size you want to make your text larger or smaller.

To change the color, either use the arrow after the color in the color box, or click the "A" to pick a color.
When you are finished click ok.

The EASIEST way to change font properties using Outlook Express is to type your letter and use your mouse to highlight all of your writing
(Click once at the beginning of your message, hold the mouse button down and drag you mouse across all the text. Release the button when all is highlighted.)
and THEN go to Format - Font and change whatever you want changed!!
