Select a download option
You can download Version 2.00 of the font and associated files as a .zip file or as a self-extracting zip (.exe) file. If you select the .zip file, you must have an "unzipping" program to open the file and extract the files. If you select the .exe file you can extract the files by double-clicking the .exe file once it has been downloaded to your personal computer. The content of the two Version 2.00 files is identical.
The .zip and .exe files were created with WinZip on a Windows computer. No assistance is available for unzipping the files or installing the font on your computer. Limited information is available through the links at the left side of this page.
Windows Users (XP and earlier versions) If you are upgrading to the latest version of the font, I suggest removing the old version, restarting your computer and then installing the new version. This suggestion is due to the way Windows stores font information in memory.
By downloading any of these files you agree to abide by the license agreement included therein.
