INSTALLATION
The downloaded file is a self-extracting package, containing all the files needed for installation. It should automatically expand after downloading if you have Stuffit Expander on your Mac.

FIRST:
Double-click the folder "DN (or ZB) demo" that is created; then double-click the folder "Fonts".

THEN:
Install the SchoolHouse Fonts and the Sigsoft Handwriter Utility:

• 1. Copy the font suitcases of the fonts you wish to use into the Fonts Folder in the System Folder.
• 2. Copy the SigSoft Handwriter utility into a folder you create on your hard drive called "Signature Software". Also copy the two help files "SigSoft Handwriter Help" and "SchoolHouse User's Guide" into the same Signature Software folder.
• 3. If you please, create an alias for the SigSoft Handwriter in your Apple Menu. This makes it convenient for starting the SigSoft Handwriter when you want to connect letters in the two connected-cursive fonts in each set.

AFTER INSTALLATION:

• Read the "Read Me First" file in the "DN (or ZB) demo" folder for instructions and general information about using SchoolHouse Fonts. There is also information about installing and deinstalling individual fonts, connecting the letters in the connected-cursive fonts, and accessing special characters such as lined spaces and accented characters.
• Choose printed and non-connected cursive fonts right from the Font menu. All fonts that don't have the word "Connect" in their names (16 of the 18 fonts in this collection) may be used by simply choosing them in the font menu and typing the desired text.
• Use the SigSoft Handwriter Utility to connect letters in connected-cursive fonts. The two connected-cursive fonts in this set, fonts with the word "Connect" in their name (e.g. "DMOBConnect..."), require the use of the SigSoft Handwriter utility to connect the letters. Instructions for use of the SigSoft Handwriter are in the onscreen SchoolHouse User's Guide in the "DN (or ZB) demo" folder. See an online animation of the Sigsoft Handwriter at http://www.vletter.com/support.htm#sshandwriter.
• You will find visual samples of all the fonts, and instructions for their use in the onscreen SchoolHouse User's Guide in the "DN (or ZB) demo" folder.
