You should be able to open Control Panel/Fonts and drag it there or C:\Windows\Fonts. It's the same location I believe.

It's the same location. I attempted the drag & drop. For some reason it would not work. Even tried saving the zip to the font location...it wouldn't show up either.

Sweet thanks for the link!

For those who may have a Mac, Open Font Book and select the + then just select the corvette.ttf

i went to control panel/fonts and then copied and pasted the .tff file. an install box will probably pop up really quick and then you can use the font.

FYI, you'll need to use a large size, probably 16 point or higher to get it to look right. at 11 or 12 point i thought it was crunched too short.

Maybe it is just my computer, but it did not like this download at all. Started blinking like crazy when it started downloading.
