Tips on installing fonts on your computer.
Make your own font
If you want to turn your own handwriting into a font, you can create your own spin on Gareth New Roman by visiting YourFonts.com and following the instructions. (You'll need access to a printer and a scanner.)
If you'd rather create your own font from scratch, rather than basing it on your handwriting, you could try using FontStruct instead.
If you do make a font and want to let us know about it, why show it off in Flickr (tag your image digitalplanetfont so we can track it) or if you'd like to share it, why not upload it to the web (perhaps via a service like YouSendIt.com or Mediafire.com) and share the URL with the Digital Planet audience in the comments box below?
Just a warning: Be very careful when downloading anything from the internet and installing it on your computer. Make sure your virus software is up-to-date and switched on before putting any files fron the internet onto your machine. Check our guide to staying safe online.
