Most charge a ton of money but www.dafont.com has a host of free downloadable fonts. They have pretty much any kind of font you're looking for. They may not be the most famous ones but you can even find ones really similar to popular ones you have to buy. First, because dafont.com has both Mac and PC versions of their fonts, make sure you download the Windows version. It's easiest to download onto your desktop first. Then, click on the green Start menu bar on the bottom left hand corner of your screen. Go to My Computer. Then Click on Local Disk (C:) under Hard Disk Drives. Click on the WINDOWS folder. There should be a folder called Fonts. Drag the dafont.com files into there. Once you do that, you can use those fonts in any program on your computer. There are a number of font websites out there.

You get free fonts by googleing free fonts or you can by the fonts on CD from your local computer store. Please note that with the free fonts you will will get non standard fonts (user created fonts) and if you Get Adobe Type Fonts you will ge more standard fonts that are comercialy accepted. Once you get a font Trutype is the best for PC. open the Font file on your computer at the following location C:WINDOWSFonts You must open the file so you see a window. drag the .ttf file into this window and you may see a scree pop up saying that it is loading the font.
