Microsoft Word comes with a long list of fonts to choose from, but depending on what your goal with the document is, you may want to use a font that’s not on the list. Good news—installing fonts is easy.
Before you can add a font in Word, you’ll need to download the font file. When you download a font from an online resource, they’re usually downloaded as a ZIP file, which you’ll need to unzip. The font files themselves will usually be TrueType (.ttf) or OpenType (.otf) files—both of which work with Word.
There are many sites where you can download font files for free, but make sure you trust the source before downloading anything. If you download anything from an unknown source, you run the risk of getting infected with malware.
