I know you can put custom fonts in say C:WindowsFonts and applications will be able to find and use them. However this is only possible when you have administrator access to the machine, which is rarely the case in shared environments.Is there a general way to use custom fonts from some other location suitable for non-admin users? If not, is there any manner specific for Adobe Fireworks (CS3) and Office 2007?I'm interested mainly in XP and Vista, but a solution that works for other Windows versions would be great. @Fire Lancer: Then that utility should be right up your alley.:) @dsolimano: When you use AddFontResource (or AddFontResourceEx) you are registering it with the system. This action doesn't require admin rights, and isn't permanent. To make the font permanent requires the rights because you need them to a) add the font to the list in the registry, and b) (optionally) move it to he fonts folder.

There is a workaround I've used on XP; I can't say if it works on other Windows versions.If you double click on any font file, wherever it's saved, you'll get a preview window.

Until you close this window, the font will be available for use in other apps, although a few may need restarting.I believe this works because the preview automatically and temporarily installs the font in order to render it, and this temporary installation doesn't involve adding the font to the Fonts folder, therefore doesn't require admin rights.Edit: Just tested copying a font file's shortcut into the Fonts folder, and that seems to work for me as well, but I'm sure I've tried it without success previously. From Windows 10 17704 onward you'll have the ability to install fonts without admin rightsHave you ever wanted to use your own fonts from your account on a shared school or work PC, but couldn’t because you didn’t have the administrator privileges required to install the fonts?

Well, we’ve heard your frustration about this and have made some changes.In the past, fonts in Windows have always been installed for all users. Because that is a system-wide change, it always required admin privilege. The need for an admin was reflected in the user interface. For example, if you browse in File Explorer to a folder containing a font file and right-clicked on the file to bring up the context menu, then the “Install” option would appear with the security badge, which means that it requires an admin.

Is a freeware font manager which can be used to manage installed fonts (with admin priviliges), or make certain fonts available at runtime (without admin privs). For this latter feature just run NexusFont and add font group(s) you like. The font files can reside in any folder.

As long as NF is running, applications can use the fonts. NF can be used portably.On windows 7 there are some quirks which take a bit of experimenting to get the hang of. The biggest one being that if you install using symbolic links don't disable by deleting the files as it deletes the files and not just the symlinks. In this case disable (uninstall) the fonts but use the 'leave the files where they are' option.
