Monotype Corsiva Font  

If you have noticed that the text on the page you are looking at doesn’t “flow” correctly, the problem probably is the result of  your computer not having the correct font installed.  I like the look of Monotype Corsiva Font and use it often.  For instance, if the Tramps and Hawkers page looks funny, then that is the reason.  To properly display, and appreciate, these pages, you need to install the Monotype Corsiva  font.  To do this, do the following:

Right click HERE for Monotype Corsiva and select "Save File as" or “Save Target as” to download.  Please note the folder it is saving to - you will need it later.  The Desktop is acceptable.

For Windows XP:

Click your start button then Select Control Panel.  If you are in Classic View you will see Fonts as one of your Icons.  Double click on the fonts icon and you will see all the fonts installed on your computer.

Next Select file and then "Install New Font" you will be prompted for the location of the file - browse to where the file was saved and select MTCORSVA.TTF and it will install automatically.

If you are in Category View (it will say Pick a category) - Select Appearance and Themes. Then in the top left side select fonts and follow the instructions above.

For Windows Vista and Windows 7:

Open Window Explorer and navigate to the folder containing MTCORSVA.TTF.  Right click on the file and click Install.

For Mac OS X:

Double-click the icon of the font file you want to install. The Font Book will open and display the font so you can preview it.

By default, the application installs the font in the Library folder of your home directory, making it available only to you. To make it available to all users on the computer, from the Font Book menu, select Preferences... , and then change the "Default Install Location:" from User to Computer.

Click Install Font.

For Mac OS 9.x and 8.x:

Simply drag the font file to the System Folder. (This may also work for OS X.)

You can delete the file from the original location once it is installed (unless, of course, you or the OS moved it.)
