1. Go to a font size. (dafont.com)
2. Once you find a font you want, click the "Download" or "To your computer" button
3. Save it as a name you recognize
4. You will have to unzip it from the .zip form to the .ttf form (Can do with Winzip, etc.)
5. Go to your Control Panel > Fonts
6. Copy the .tff form and paste it into the Fonts folder.

That is the basis of it.

^ If you don't, you can always right-click the .ttf file, select 'Cut', and stick it in a folder of your choice. ;)
