INSTALLATION for OSX
The downloaded file is a zipped package, containing all the files needed for installation.

    2) Double-click on the downloaded file "SchoolhouseDemoZBOSX.zip" or "SchoolhouseDemoDNOSX.zip" to expand the files.
    3) A folder named "SchoolhouseDemoZBOSX" or "SchoolhouseDemoDNOSX" will be created on your desktop.
    4) Open the folder and double click on the Easy Install icon.
    5) Click "Accept" to install the Schoolhouse Fonts Demo, or "Decline" to quit the installation process.

AFTER INSTALLATION:

  • Read the "SchoolhouseDemo OSX Read Me.pdf" file in the "SchoolhouseDemo..OSX" folder for instructions and general information about using Schoolhouse Fonts. There is also information about installing and uninstalling individual fonts, connecting the letters in the connected-cursive fonts, and accessing special characters such as lined spaces and accented characters.
  • Choose printed and non-connected cursive fonts right from the Font menu. All fonts that don't have the word "Connect" in their names (16 of the 18 fonts in this collection) may be used by simply choosing them in the Font menu and typing the desired text.
  • Use the vLetter Handwriter utility to connect letters in connected-cursive fonts. The two connected-cursive fonts in this set, fonts with the word "Connect" in their name (e.g. "DMOBConnect..."), require the use of the vLetter Handwriter utility to connect the letters. Instructions for use of the vLetter Handwriter are in the "vLetter Help.pdf" in the "SchoolhouseDemo..OSX" folder.
