Okay so I figured out how to install the font and i got it in my fonts folder on my disk. (the font is yummah strawberriez by the way) and when i try to use it on word or something it doesnt show up. please help!

Are you using mac or windows? You have to drag the font to the Fonts folder and authenticate it (Mac)

Office only recognizes fonts that are installed before the start-up of an Office application.
