The files will be located in Library/Fonts or Home/Library/Fonts

How do activate installed fonts? I downloaded and installed a font family. The only weight that displays as active is the last one in the installation. All others are grayed out and inactive. How do I make them all active for use? [Re-Titled by Moderator]

Font Installation Problem I'm having trouble installing fonts in Font Book. When I drag the font (in this case Bembo) into the My Fonts window, it tells me it's already installed, but Bembo doesn't appear either in My Fonts or All Fonts. This is happening with multiple fonts. I'm stumped. Thanks for any suggestions.

If you open a font in Font Book and click Install, it will be copied to ~/Library/Fonts, so if you like you can delete the downloaded file.
