installing fonts

(OP)
I still can't install 2 fonts from a floppy disc. They are:
Archquik . shx and Archstyl . shx. I must be missing something very basic because I have followed all of the past instructions, but nothing seems to work. Can anyone give me instructions from the desktop on? I must be doing something very wrong.
Thanks,
Bill Rolland

RE: installing fonts

Have you copied the fonts from the disk to your C:\Program Files\ACAD2000\FONTS folder?

That seems to be the problem, can you take me step by step from the desktop to install to these fonts in "C:\Program files\ACAD2000\Fonts folder? I must be doing something wrong.
Thanks for your help,

RE: installing fonts

Bill,
Double click on your My Documents folder. On your Address window  got to your A: drive.  This will show the contents of your floppy disk.  Select your font files (hold the shift key down and left click to select multiple files).  These files should now be hilighted.  Now right click on the same files and select "Copy".  Now go to the address windows and got to C: drive.  Double left click on the Program Files folder.  Repeat this step for the ACAD2000 & Font folders. In the Font folder Right click and select paste.  This will copy the files to this folder and you should be on your way the next time you start AutoCAD.

Good luck,
