download the font. usually it'll come in a zip file. open it with winzip, and extract the .ABR file, and then locate it, copy it, and paste it in the fonts folder under the control panel.

dont paste it into the fonts folder under Documents and Settings... it doesnt always work.

Its always worked for me, for over 10,000 different fonts. not all at once of course, lol.
After all the control panel font's folder is just a shortcut to c:\windows\fonts
