Windows 10 comes with a number of pre-installed fonts but yet you need to install fonts to meet your specific text or print needs. Fonts provide typography and shape to the text on digital screens. You can install fonts from a number of font repositories. Some are free and same offer paid fonts. There are many types of fonts available but the most common type of font that you can install in any version of windows is True Type Fonts (ttf).

You can select a particular font by clicking on plus sign and then download it in zip form to a specific location on your hard disk.
