Adding Fonts to Freehand 11

[kateyes webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

Hi, I've been using freehand for some time now but I still consider myself a beginner.
I was wondering if anyone knew how I could add fonts to freehand.
I've been working on a logo that has a certain font that freehand doesn't have and I'ld really like to use this font.

Is there any way I cann add new fonts?

thanks.

kateyes;
Installing fonts is done at the system level (they are
available to any application). In addition to the information your OS help
should have concerning font installation, I believe Macromedia has technotes
on the
subject available in their Freehand support center (link under freehand
help). -Tom Unger

This is my first day on freehand. I attempted to open a Illustrator file that had fonts loaded in at a system level. It responded as if I was missing that font. Is there something I have to do to enable those system fonts within Freehand 11? I am running windows nt os.

My system fonts are active when I am using Freehand, I guess it just said the font was missing when I brought in an Adobe Illustrator file. That's what confussed me. Thanks for the reference links.
