(Install)为GIMP 照片编辑器(GIMP Photo Editor)安装新字体
在尝试安装新字体之前,您要做的第一件事就是下载它们。免费获取字体的最佳地点是Google Fonts。您将在那里遇到大量选项,因此请浏览所有选项并选择最适合您需求的选项。
如果您想要的不仅仅是Google字体所提供的,那么互联网上还有其他几个免费字体的地方(spots on the internet for free fonts)。
下载字体(通常以ZIP文件形式提供)后,请继续将内容解压缩到硬盘驱动器上的文件夹中。
在GIMP中选择首选项选项(Preferences)
好的,下载您喜欢的字体后,请打开GIMP并导航到“首选项”(Preferences)区域。要到达那里,请单击Edit > Preferences。
导航到字体
打开首选项(Preference)菜单后,请向下滚动到左下角,然后单击文件夹(Folder)旁边的 + 号将其展开。完成后,向下选择字体。
安装新字体或字体
您已经做到了这一点,所以让我们继续将您的字体添加到GIMP以供将来使用。
选择显示 Add a New Folder的按钮。从那里,请单击文本框旁边的文件选择器图标。这样做可以让您搜索不久前下载的字体。添加它们后,点击窗口底部的“确定”按钮以完成该过程。
找到新添加的字体
如果您不太熟悉GIMP,那么您可能不知道如何查看您的字体。
这可以通过选择Text Tool轻松完成,然后从那里点击Text下的字体图标以滚动浏览已安装字体的列表。
从该列表中,您应该可以找到您已安装的所有新字体,包括预装的字体。
