(OP)
I have a floppy disc with A font that I would like to use.
The font is Archquick,shx & archstyl.shx. I have been trying to install this font into AutoCad 2000 for the last few weeks without any sucess.
Can anyone take the time to detail each step in the process of installing these fonts into AutoCad 2000? I am new in using AutoCad so the explantion will have to be basic.
Thanks.

RE: fonts
Once you get into the font window you want to go to File | Install New Font. Select the A drive and then select the fonts when they appear in the window. Say okay and they will install for you. Once you get to AutoCAD go to Style and you should be able to select them from the list.
If this doesn't work please let me know.
RE: fonts
Thanks for trying to help me. I did as you instructed and everything came up. When i got to the install new font window under lists of fonts it displayed "no fonts found". I checked the disc and it lists 2 fonts. Do you have any ideas? I went to the control panel fron desktop and autocad was not up.
Thanks

.TTF files have to be installed in the c:\Windows\Fonts folder. Some good references on the net are:
